Do othe distros have Gnome Keyring Quirks...
If you're an Ubuntu user, you'll know what I mean. I like ubuntu, and by proxy Debian from when I've used it. However, there are bugs, primarily with keyring that I want to know if are issues in other distros.
The main one is that it doesn't(no matter what I do) unlock on login.
Do the likes of the other Debian derivatives like Mint go through this? Fedora, Mandriva, etc? Or is this an Ubuntu problem issue?

correction to what I have written:
Every distribution that can have Gnome can also have Gnome Keyring including openSuSe and Fedora.

The primary issue I have with Gnome Keyring is that I loathe it (and all "keyrings") with the fire of a thousand suns.
They are obnoxiousness automated.

As a Gentoo user, I specifically have USE flags that disable Gnome Keyring (amongst other things) that I compile onto my systems (see my signature). As an Ubuntu user, you don't really have this option, unless you do a controlled, minimal Ubuntu (or Debian) installation.
