Thanks Julian.

Allowing Firefox's PM access to the all of the keychain can be considered a security weakness.

Like in Camino (or Entourage), I was hoping / wishing, that Firefox would only be allowed to look up ONLY the password required, but not bring ALL keychain passwords to their password manager. This would be better and a closer integration with OS X.

Dont know if Firefox's PM allows dynamic lookup hooks like this.
Pls look into this when possible.

Regards,
Padu

Access to Keychain entries is controlled by the operating system, not by Firefox or this extension.

The extension requests the password for an entry only when requested to do so by Firefox and such a request will only be successful if it is allowed by OS X. Passwords are never requested until Firefox actually tries to fill in a form (i.e. after you have selected which entry to use) or when you select "Show Passwords" in the preferences screen.
