I like the idea of integrating this ultra-secure app to Chrome and/or Chromium

This is exactly what I needed alongside KeyBase. Other than full email integration, I really like how this app is there for exactly the right reasons and doesn't boast anything else.

I'm a little biased though. But the Kbpgp.js library this is based on is really awesome and I feel like whether or not it's my extension or someone else's kbpgpjs is the way to go when it comes to encrypting information with javascript.
