Password by definition is a secret word or phrase known only to
restricted group or individual, I do not share opinion that passwords
should be placed with unknown group of people like lastpass, neither
at all held in any type of remote cloud.

In case of Keepass as free software, yes, it does work on many
operating systems, probably more than the proprietary lastpass, and it
seems that there is keepass-mode, at least to copy passwords to Emacs,
I did not reseach command line.

Overall it does not matter, those questions are not relevant, as for
GNU project, proprietary software or supporting proprietary software
by making Emacs packages that support such or interact with such, are
simply no go, as such are controlling the user, and do not give
freedom of computing to user.
