New Google Chrome wallet for Auroracoin, based on the Bitcoin wallet by Andrew Toth.

Looks good, I dont test it yet, try soon. But i have one question, where is wallet.dat in this solutions? In some cloud?

The private key is stored in the browser only. Transactions are signed in the browser and are pushed to the node on the server. The private key will only leave the browser to be synced with other Chrome browsers that you are signed into. Encrypting the private key ensures that nobody will know the private key without the password, not even this extension.

Having said that, this is really a 'spare change' wallet. Don't put vast amounts of Auroracoin in it.
