It didn't seem to be when I asked about password storage a while back.
Passwords aren't even portable from machine to machine--and I would be
strongly opposed to making the password storage system platform
agnostic, since it would mean abandoning an important piece of OS
integration (including transparent password portability across
browsers) on the Mac.

That's not to say that we couldn't aim for making most of a profile
portable, but I would be sad if we made a hard-and-fast rule that
everything must be completely portable even at the cost of platform
integration.
