I use a few computers (home, work, laptop, etc) and use Foxmarks to synchronise my bookmarks.  The problem is that my rss feeds get stored on a single machine.

I would want the rss feed and its state to be stored in a bookmark folder which is then distributed by Foxmarks.  The basic state (check frequency, etc) could be stored in the description field.  The actual messages I would not need to keep because I would bookmark them if they are interesting.
I did respond to your review at AMO, but developer responses have to be modded so who knows if and when it will show up.  This watered down version of your recommendation#4 over there might be possible.  I am thinking how it might be done.  It won't be the whole file structure(which is what I assumed you meant at AMO) since even my newsfox folder is 15Mb, and I know much larger ones out there.  

There are other syncing products that do more than bookmarks and mountable remote filesystems(?), but I've never tried any of them.  You can also put your newsfox folder on a flash drive.

I do realize syncing is a necessary feature for a lot of people - it's just harder for us than for the online readers(they have no problem) and the readers that don't store articles.
