4. Instead of providing and supporting desktop versions for Windows, Apple and Linux the following could be of interest of you:

There is a project called InputStick. They work on an USB stick can emulate any USB device, also a keyboard. It can be connected with smartphones via Bluetooth. If you implemented a feature that would send the regenerated password to the InputStick, it would be "typed" directly into a password field of a web site.

The idea is: I want to log into, e.g., Amazon on my desktop. I input my login name and tap into the password field. I then take my smartphone, open Master Password, enter the site's name. Master Password regenerates my password. Then I have Master Password send the password to InputStick, whichs types it into the password field of Amazon. Instead of a website this would work with any input field, e.g. of a desktop application. I do not know now far the developers have come with an iOS version.

Again, this feature could be marketed as an In App Purchase.
