	\class BKeyStore
	\ingroup app
	\ingroup libbe
	\brief The BKeyStore lets you query, retrieve and store keys in the
		system's key store.

	Instances of this object give you an easy API to interact with the system's
	\c keystore_server. This is the central service that manages storing and
	retrieving keys, as well as managing the authorizations that a user grants
	to individual applications.

	It is important to note that all calls on this object operate
	\b synchronously. This means that it should not be used during the event
	loop of a visible \ref BWindow, as this may cause drawing and interaction
	issues.

	All operations are performed in the context of a keyring. All systems have
	at least the \b Master \b keyring. Many of the methods take the name of the
	keyring as its first argument. Most of the methods in this class have an
	overloaded variant that operate on the Master keyring. If you want to
	access this keyring through the normal methods, pass an empty string as the
	identifier to the method.

	See the \link app_keystore overview to the Password and Key Storage API
	\endlink for an introduction to the API.

		the key that you are looking for.

		match.
