Thanks.
Hm I still would prefer plain text not leaving the device. There have been historical examples of plain text passwords ending up in logs (Twitter) so I would prefer encrypted on my device so there's no chance of interception (mistaken or purposeful) on the server.
Plus this would result in a loss of features - keys would then live only on a device for as long as the cookies/storage existed. New browser/device/clean storage the keys are lost and the ciphertext unable to be decrypted.
