This is true, but my first reaction was as a LastPass customer not as an observer of the company.
I also agree with colinplamondon's comment "The thing I liked about LastPass was that it seemed like the highly geeky, less startupy approach to password managers, more likely to be run for the long-term, less likely to be at risk of an acquisition."
So the thought of them seeking an exit never crossed my mind.

Over time it's going to get harder for new startups to attract customers because people will realize that flashy new product offerings aren't likely to stick around (in a form that we actually want) for long.
