Yeah, it is definitely a good idea, but right now there isn't any nice way to do this. I think the only sensible solution would be to write a network server which Revelation could connect to and use to store shared account data. I don't think it should be too much work to implement (1-2 months), but it is definitely a post-1.0 feature.
