I see some info in "What's Cooking" about this patch but it's unclear to
me whether the hostname issue (where it's hard to have multiple
identities on a single server, which I think is all right) is blocking
the inclusion of the patch into the next release, or if it will be
included eventually if no one complains about that issue, or something
else...

Junio and I discussed it a bit in another thread. I think the ability to
use "user@hostname" to disambiguate means the problem is dealt with at a
high level. And the "cache" helper handles that just fine. But the
"store" helper will conflate two entries for the same host. I'll see if
I can work on a patch for that.

It looks like Junio is planning to hold the series off until 1.7.8. Have
you been working on a Secrets API helper? If so, I'd love to get
feedback on how well the interface is serving your needs.
