Yup.

1. Install seahorse (Passwords and Keys)
2. Look for Login (login keyring) in the left sidebar
3. Right click -> change password
4. See if it allows changing the password to be empty

An empty password would mean the login keyring is entirely unencrypted, so all your passwords are stored in the clear. But if you're not using any user account password, that's really the best you can do. Your login keyring password has to match your user account password or you'll get this warning.

Normally the login keyring gets rekeyed whenever you change your user account password. But maybe it refuses to do this when changing your password to be empty? Dunno.
