[Authentication] Open Issue: Transient Collections

One thing we haven't covered in the spec is collections that only live
for the user's current desktop login session.
In gnome-keyring we have a 'session' keyring which does this. Do we want
to have something like this in the secrets API? Among other things, it
seems like it would be useful for browsers to create temporary collections.
There are two lifetimes here, that could be useful:
* For the life of the dbus caller. Destroyed when the caller
leaves the service.
* For the life of the user's desktop login session.
Any other ideas on how to bring this into the spec?
Cheers,
Stef
