Exyctly, the window is coming from gnome-keyring. And it comes back, at
least it did for me... Easiest way to disable it is to rename the
gnome-keyring daemon in your template VM to some different name - as
long as you don't need it elsewhere. Uninstalling gnome-keyring is
unfortunately not easily possible due to some dumb dependency (also
discussed elsewhere @qubes-users).

however I am not clear how to do this , I'd prefer not to break
anything. If there is another way I can't find it in the Template
Settings ->Startup GUI area . I never have quite grasped why Gnome
insists on this thing.

At present I was trying to problem solve while Lastpass extension
won't persist in the login, such a PITA, think I've given up , removed
its files and reinstalled and now it's actually worse, doesn't remember
Username either now , before it was just the yubikey relogin ....... I
realize this is probably not a Qub-user thing directly, but .....
Chromium 63 the login will persist between browser reboots, so maybe
I need to give up on Firefox with Yubikey/Lastpass ; even installed in
the test AppVM the universal LP login thingy sigh

.....the 1st part anyway

[user@computing ~]$ sudo mv /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon
/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon-old
[user@computing ~]$ killall gnome-keyring-daemon
[user@computing ~]$

....I'm thinking this may not be fixable , and maybe "a feature" at
least in FF ??
