Be careful what you wish for. A modern browser is an extremely complex
piece of software, which somehow manages to understand everything from
ancient and malformed HTML to all the whizz bang goodies that come with
HTMl5, JavaScript, assorted plugins and AJAX.
Plus the inevitable security considerations and holes accompanying that
little lot.
I've probably missed something in the above.
Oh yes, a password manager *with pronounceable passwords* is the latest
fad <giggle>
