The madest thing for me is that now other browsers integrate with platform keyring. Why not Firefox ? - Since other browsers have it, political arguments are weak - Since Quantum overhaul, technical one are weak too. Mozilla had an opportunity to deal with is issue that is a *major* usability and security issue.
Let's say FF displays the profile in a corner like Google Chrome. Let's say this could be associated with a FF Sync account. On profile switch, it could ask for password or not, depending on a user profile locking pref. We already know the OS user is able to unlock all FF identifier stores, because this is how keyring work. But with a live (vs on startup) profile management, FF could offer the opportunity to manage switching. Just my 2 cents, but 12 years on, it is time to look at what other successful browser are doing... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41179 Title: Integrate with Gnome Keyring To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/41179/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
