Adding a master password would be fairly trivial, but we specifically chose not to because it endangers users by creating false sense of security. Anyone with access to your account can trivially get at your saved passwords in any browser. Hiding this fact only encourages careless behavior on the part of users, who will naively assume it's unnecessary to lock the machine. Simply put, if you let someone have unrestricted access to your account, then it's not your account anymore. There's nothing the browser can do to change that.
