"Use a password manager" still seems to be the right answer for frictionless logins. "Easy" is requirement #1 to get people to use a thing. In fact, using it should be easier than not using it.

If you use 1Password, it nails the password details that trip up the "shady" password managers you allude to. See this study about stealing passwords or credit cards from users of auto fill password managers:

Interestingly, the Safari built in keychain is better to protect cc.
