As reported by @elliotkember, with brief access to your machine, anyone can get access to any of your passwords saved by Chrome by going to chrome://settings/passwords and clicking any one of those Show buttons. How fucked up is that. This doesn't solve the core problem, but it at least prevents people from doing that:

  1. Go to chrome://version/
  2. Copy the Profile Path.
  3. Paste that path into your file system explorer
  4. Open the folder named User StyleSheets
  5. Open the file named Custom.css in a text editor
  6. Paste the above snippet in, save
