I'll stick with KeePassX, the password database is

It comes to the same thing really. whether you store the passwords
themselves or the methods and data used to generate them, both systems
are as strong as the master password and useless if that is compromised.
So stick with whatever suits your way of working. Choice is good :)
This is actually not correct...
Since PWM doesn't store the passwords, there is nothing to 'crack'...
there would never be any way for an attacker who got ahold of your RDF
file to run an attack program against it - how would the attack program
ever be able to determine 'success'?
