would be a bit complicated to totally integrated given the number of databases, but personally have had good results using:

https://github.com/karlicoss/bleanser
pip install ./bleanser
python3 -m bleanser.modules.firefox prune --glob ~/data/browsing/firefox'*' --move ~/.cache/removed

That also has a module for chrome which worked on my small amount of chrome backups

I believe this will make it easier to prune
'usless' databases using bleanser

I personally use a script to merge all my databases into a JSON file every 3 months or so, using a merge-browser-history script

I think theres enough solutions here -- either use the bleanser module or backup dbs to long term storage/merge all browser db's into one like my script does
