> explain how a user would switch from Linux to Windows and bring their passwords with them
Same way you would for secrets used by any other application: enter them again. This is an OS/desktop issue, not the responsibility of an individual application. Of course if you have decided to use cloud password storage like Sync then that would be your means of sharing secrets across machines. By the way Windows seems to have no general service comparable to GNOME Keyring or KDE Wallet or OS X Keychain. It does have CryptProtectData, meaning that on Windows it is appropriate for Firefox to store its own passwords so long as it uses this API to prevent them from being kept on disk in cleartext. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217300 Title: Seahorse integration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/217300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
