Yes, I'm trying to use the keyfile plugin now ;-) I think it would be nice if Arch Linux has a plugin too.

Yes, when I try to edit a connection gnome-keyring asks me the password for 'default keyring'. But it accepts only the password I set as a user. I think because that user does not have the rights to make connections available to all users the apply button is disabled. But why does gnome-keyring authenticate me as a user when I started nm-connection-editor as root?
