It’s pretty great. Chrome doesn’t allow you to install apps outside the Chrome store anymore, though, at least not by default. You need to open your Extensions page in Chrome and then drag and drop the extension there to install it.

I think storage services like Drive and Dropbox are in dire need of such local-client encryption, and e-mail services, too, and we probably won’t see much of this until the Web Crypto API is finished in 2014. But it’s too good to see some companies are working on making it happen even earlier.
