Description

AFAICS, Tampermonkey only supports script syncing, not storage syncing. I'd vastly prefer to avoid reimplementing some storage syncing layer if we can. Maybe Violentmonkey supports this natively? I haven't checked yet.

Also ideally any solution should preserve user privacy, i.e. not disclose unencrypted mappings over the network to third parties like cloud service providers.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Violentmonkey implements storage syncing and evaluate whether it can be reused; also consider privacy preserving alternatives like encrypted local storage or using a sync service that does not expose data.
