Re-logins constantly required but still no keychain support #365

OS macOS

Gmail Desktop Version Version: 3.0.0-alpha.35 (dev)

Describe the bug Google keeps asking for me to enter my password to confirm it's me, but there is no keychain support so I need to manually go find my password and copy paste it.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Google asks for password.
  2. Password field does not support keychain

Expected behavior Clicking on the password field should pop open the keychain prompt for autofill passwords.

Electron unfortunately doesn't support keychain and Google keep asking for your password is a safety measurement by Google.
