There's a nice shareware ($20) program called SimpleKeys that gets 
high scores at versiontracker: 
<http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15986>. It's not 
freeware, but it's not too expensive if nothing better comes along.

I don't think it's keychain that types shortcuts, does it? I thought 
it was the autofill in the program itself.  Oh, actually, I see that 
in Camino's preferences it just offers to save Passwords in the 
keychain and to autofill passwords. I don't see that it intends to 
save email addresses, home addresses and that sort of thing, as 
Safari does.
