Another reason the new sandbox is the virtual machine..... Bad Chrome disSecurity

[Jon Kettenhofen]

I don't use chrome, but Firefox can be rigged even if you use lastpass.  
I haven't bothered to count the times
that killing the Firefox process and starting it up again got me back 
into lastpass.  Same for a restart when
enabling or adding an extension.  Someone could write a popular 
extension that takes advantage of this.

The inverse is that lastpass could be more comprehensive in its 
coverage, covering most situations and
most applications that need a password.  This would be especially 
helpful when used on an android
or iOS machine, etc.
