I had pondered how hard it would be to leverage the existing Firefox
password store and code a plugin that could sync to a server. Probably
that already exists (full profile sync does exist), but I won't share my
data with fogs I don't trust, etc.. But if I could make it work, I'd end
up being a fog provider myself if I released the code (but I'd offer the
option to run your own fog server). But I wouldn't have the first clue
about coding a FF plugin :-/
