Ah nice, I had this idea and was thinking of implementing it. This is probably a very scary idea for a lot of people, but the reality is that it's no different with regards to security than other approaches, but it's vastly simpler (which should be a win).

I can't speak to this specific implementation, but the reality is that if your master password is leaked you have to rotate every credential no matter what.

This has been implemented many times over the last 20 years. Another implementation is PasswordMaker.
