Re:Private by Design: How We Built Firefox Sync

There are more details above but the short version is that it is possible to build extensions for other browsers that work with Firefox Sync. But the only one linked seemed to be for Gnome's browser, so no one may have actually done it.
LastPass and others provide a cross-browser password sync service. But after Xmarks having been discontinued, I could not find find any cross-browser bookmark sync service. I was hoping Firefox Sync would be open enough for someone (preferably Mozilla Foundation) to have built a Chrome extension to support it, but this hasn't happened, and doesn't even seem to be on the works.
I'm actually willing to pay a subscription for this functionality (i.e. bookmarks/password sync across the the major browsers) for anyone who supplies it without trying to lock me in their service or browser.
