What would be needed for a good browser password manager?

It should be open source
No code should be loaded from a server, all code should be local when running
You should be able to store your passwords on your storage of choice
Storage should be encrypted safely
You should be able to update the database from different devices
Browser integration should be stellar, including generating passwords for you

It seems to me that this can be split in two areas: back-end and front-end. Many projects seem to be good at the back-end stuff, and not so many at the front-end stuff. I wonder, would it be possible to split the work so that one open source project only does the front-end work, i.e. the browser integration, and then make that pluggable?
