SSL certificate password storage?

I'm accessing a Git repository over an HTTPS transport, where client certificates are required. My certificate requires a password to use, and Git prompts me for this every time I use it -- it's starting to get a little old. I've got Subversion set up to use Gnome-Keyring for credentials, so I only have to unlock that once per session. Is there something similar for Git? Is it planned? If not, is there a good place to make feature requests?
