You should have a look at the project 'PASSWORD SAFE' http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/ An interesting point with this project is that BRUCE SCHNEIER is behind it. Cryptographic software are not a easy thing and you need a lot of knowledge to get a real security. I've not followed the original thread about your soft and don't know who are in the Team but you should certainly redirect your ressource on this project. And debian in the name is not a good idea. For what I understand of your project (which seems to be very similar to password safe) you need an adoption from others softwares (mozilla, gnupg, ...) so restricting yourself to debian is the wrong way. To conclude you are clearly off topic here.
