Interesting, that seems to be something relatively new.  Not really useful
for me as I don't use Windows all that often, although the next time I fire
up my Windows VM that I use from time to time I'll give it a try.

It would be useful to me if LastPass could be used to supply passwords to a
SSH command line client on Linux - that's one of the main times that I have
to supply passwords manually for SSH servers that don't support SSH key
authentication.
