Unlocking Desktop, doesn't unlock browser extention

I'm not sure if this is supposed to work or not. The messaging is confusing IMO. In the desktop app > Preferences > Browser There is an option that says "Connect with 1Password in the browser"...

Hi claudiodekker:

The short version is Chromium is not a codesigned web browser, and according to the developers it never will be. The end result of that is that because of it's lack of codesigning, 1Password for Mac will not talk to 1Password in your browser. Because of that, while you can manually unlock and lock 1Password in your browser as you mentioned, it will not share a lock state with 1Password for Mac.
