that said, i sometimes wish the interface between factotum and secstore was a bit more slick, particularly when dealing with protocols (such as inferno's auth(6)) that don't use a password directly, but instead use another protocol (e.g. login(6)) to generate a long-term key which is the info that you want factotum to store. the stuff with ipso, etc, is fine when all the entries are manually generated, but seems unnecessarily awkward when automatically generated keys are involved. i'd like to see a way of asking factotum "please save your keys to secstore", although there's some difficulty getting it right, as there are potentially many factotums to one secstore, or even worse, several secstores.
