Doesn't this make those accounts highly insecure with respect to actual physical theft of your laptop (which I'm guessing is more common than identity theft)? If someone steals your computer do they then have access to all the sites whose credentials you have stored in 1Password? I must admit, this is the one issue that has kept me from adopting 1Password, LastPass etc. I'm lazy and I just know that at some point I would hit the "Save this password?" button when prompted by my browser and bang, there goes my security. —Robert
