If you are looking for a X-platform solution then I only know of
Password Gorilla[1].

Hmm, I don't know any solution for that. X-browser _and_ X-platform
bookmark manager. It'd is a cool idea. I wonder if you can plug in a
module that replaces the bookmark manager in Firefox. If the plugin can
read the bookmarks from the net, and save them there as well, then you
have a solution. (Kind of like a _really_ cool interface to del.icio.us
:-)

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.
