Yeah, I agree. Keychain should only fill the password type field.

Yes, that's why I mentioned in previous email asking user to save it
or not in Keychain,
but giving it as an argument would be better option.
I knew it because for my personal usage, the form requires two passwords and
one is for OTP as exactly what you described.
Let me change a little bit more on my patch.

Looks like GnuTLS has common API that is for supporting system key
store, however,
according to their documents, it?s at this moment only supporting Windows one.
I think it may be not much difficult to use Keychain to lookup
certificates and keys
like what current `ANDROID_KEYSTORE` does.
Let me try after implementing above changes for passwords.
