What I think is that this is seriously cool!

Some suggestions:

* When I choose "decode", I really want to be able to hit "Enter"
after I type in the passphrase.

* When editing, I can Tab out of the edit box, but I land on my
browser's URL field. I'd rather land on the "Preview" button and be
able to hit "Return".

* I don't want to be prompted for a fresh passphrase whenever I
encode--just when I decode. Would that be possible?

* I wish Markdown supported simple tables:

| sitename | username | password | comments |



When reading the Markdown syntax, I saw this "To specify an entire
block of pre-formatted code, indent every line of the block by 4
spaces or 1 tab."   :-)

While the other suggestions in this thread are fine, I'll be giving
StrongWiki a spin.
