Password Sync with Browser internal Password Manager
Current Status With browser extension passwords must be provided into separate dialog and already stored passwords with browser are not synchronized.
Feature Description
- Need password synchronization like Chrome and Firefox has, but storage within Nextcloud.
- User should not use extra dialog to provide credentials, user should use browser implemented means to provide credentials.
- Already stored passwords within browser should be synchronized during first connetion to Nextcloud.
- Once setup is done from admin user should not know/recognize that passwords are synchronized. User should work in the same way as without password management.
Additional context n.a.
I would love to implement this feature, since it would allow me to use the browser logic for detecting / inserting passwords instead of implementing it on my own. But this requires a browser api which did exist in the old Firefox, but not in Quantum/WebExtension. The ticket to implement this has yet to be merged. I'm not aware of any attempts to bring this functionality to chrome.
Thank you. I will wait for an update and meanwhile I will stay with my own Firefox Sync Server for some more years.
