Description
Running Arch Linux. Keybase runs on boot, which is alright, but as soon as I login I'm prompted for my keybase password to unlock the fs and mount it. The problem is that this gets extremely irritating. I don't use it every time I'm logged in so I don't need it mounted every time I login.
It would be better if it just maybe chilled out in the taskbar until clicked.

Research direction
Start by locating the Linux startup flow that unlocks and mounts the filesystem, then find the taskbar or tray entry point for the client. Trace how login-time mounting is triggered and determine where a click could initiate it; done means startup no longer prompts for the password and mounting remains available from the taskbar.
