I have created Alzheimer Password Manager on the same ideas as this one.
I believe the better idea is to use also user specific salt per browser. In that case, the passwords are more unique, and the threat model changes dramatically.
Current Threat Model:
* No one with an access to the PC with installed extension should be able to authenticate without knowing the correct passphrase.
* The same passphrase used in two different web browsers should produce two different passwords (cryptographic salt will solve this problem).
* If an attacker obtains password for some websites, she should not be able to derive passwords for another websites using that knowledge.
* Attacker should not be able to brute force master passphrase from the salt and knowledge of one password (PBKDF with lots of iterations).
* it provides protection against basic keyloggers (but they can read our salt from the memory / file...)
