Description
I can't figure out how to get Keybase to prompt for a password when I start the app. It just starts with kbfs mounted without any prompt for my passphrase.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Mac client startup with KBFS mounted and no passphrase prompt. Trace the startup and authentication entry points to determine whether this is expected behavior or a regression. Done means the cause is identified and the client either prompts correctly or documents the expected behavior.
