TouchID Support for Firefox/Chrome/Safari Extension
Instead of just always on or Pin Code unlock, would it be possible to support TouchID in the browser extensions? The main application on MacOS already supports this, so not having this in the Browser Extensions feels sortsighted, unless there's a technical reason for it to not be possible.

I see this as a critical safety feature. Especially when using it in public. Just using a pin undermines the strenghts of all the other security measures in my opinion. Biometric unlock seems much better to me.

Or to require unlocking the app to use the extension...at least...

Yes please! I didn't realise this to begin with, which meant that my passwords via safari weren't protected until I gave them a PIN code. If nothing else, the need for a PIN code should be mandatory.

Fully support this request, when we have Touch ID available it seems an omission to not have it with the browser extensions too (as exists in 1Password for instance that I recently migrated from)
