Not so silly. There are password processes that depend on gestures that are under testing. The ability to click and swipe through a series of images is somewhat unique due to biomechanical parameters or personal habits. I've also seen proposed some sort of facial recognition. The sooner we get through remembering a dozen random characters, the better. That's just a waste of time.
Not likely to be accessible to people with visual disabilities, or disabilities that reduce fine-motor skills.
I use a password manager that syncs encrypted data over the internet so I have the same set of passwords on different machines of different OSes (Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android) and browsers. But none of these make it easy for desktop or console applications; you need to query the manager, prove you're you, copy the password to the clipboard (insecure!) or try to manually type longish random strings. Double-bonus goes to sites that double-check with an SMS or similar. "Something you know (password) and something you have (cellphone)" makes for good two-factor authentication.
Pretty much, only computer geeks (broadly construed) use password managers. Not only do most ordinary computer users not use them, they have never even heard of them.
