How can i use a sync key independent of my password?
I have heard that the old sync service is going away at the end of September, so I need to update to the new Firefox Accounts based sync. However I know that I will not be able to keep my Firefox Account password safe enough to use for encrypting my sync data. Therefore I need to configure Firefox to use a sync key that is not derived from my password. Is there any way to do that? It is ok if I need to edit config files or install add-ons to do it. I need it to work on both Desktop and Android. If it is not possible, I guess I will have to stop using sync.

No there isn't any way to change it where the "encryption key" is generated from the Firefox Account password. Three-factor login as used in Sync 1.1 is gone in the current Sync 1.5 - name and password only. Each Firefox installation stores the "kA" and "kB" "token" data for the connection to the Sync server and the "encryption key" that is used to encrypt / decrypt user data.
