A non-techie is unlikely to use a program like this. Which is kind of the point. They are pretty much exclusive... hence someone who uses one is likely to understand defense in depth.

Apart from spelling it correctly, of course. wink

Oh come on, the spelling pedant in me had to say something...

someone who understands defense in depth... and wants to add a single point of failure to their security set-up.

Sorry, I'm not convinced. I'll stick to strong passwords stored in my head for everything which matters and a "throw-away" shared password for stuff which doesn't.
Then use Keepass as already mentioned, use two factor authentication with password and certificate stored on encrypted USB key with a separate password.

It's all about risk versus usability, like all security.
