Hmm.  I can see why people would like that, but I will also point out that
if a web page can query your password manager for you, so can any malware
that has gotten into that page.

Yes, it's more steps to use the "auto type" feature in KeePass, but I know
it's a lot harder for browser-based malware to query an entirely different
app.
