password managers generate a unique password for each website. this means if one of your passwords leaks it won't compromise any of your other website logins.

nostr-login is a regression: if you leak your nsec then they have access to every website that you've ever logged in to.

using your npub for logging into everything is a really bad idea security wise, please be conscious of this before implementing or pushing this as a login solution to websites which may contain sensitive information.

Main npub could sign for valid derived keys and invalidated ones via an event?

Consistency is a big problem, events do not broadcast
