This doesn't matter too much though since someone would need to type in your account password in order to show a password anyway. The only thing it would prevent is accidentally deleting a keychain. If someone has your account password, they could get into the Keychain even if it is locked.

I was just wondering, before the upgrade i used to be able to do that.
Is this because of the Sierra's structure?

Do you have another user you can test this on just to make sure it isn't tied strictly to your account?
