[wplug] Any Suggestions For Password Managers?

[Justin Smith]

I just use KeepassX. When I go to a site where I need to log in, I click on the login form, highlight the right entry in KeepassX, press CTRL-V, and then it fills in the details for me. 

It's probably not as slick as what you were talking about, but it's good enough for my purposes.
