- When I try to maximize the PasswordMaker Python window, it contents
2+
stay at fixed width/length. They should maximize (or change size)
3+
along with the window.
4+
- A paste button associated with the 'URL' input field. This way it
5+
will make it much easier to paste a URL
6+
- Two distinct fields 'URL input' and 'URL', analogous to [2]. As in
7+
[2], 'URL input' would take a honorificly long url such as [1] and
8+
strip it to 'passwordmaker.org' in 'URL'.
9+
- A drop-down combo with supported algorithms. Right now 'md5' is
10+
input by default, but the user may not know the available options.
11+
- A spinner for the 'Length' field
12+
- Another dropdown combo for 'Characters', containing the 6 options in [2].
13+
- An auto-generate password mechanism.
14+
- Accelerators for the buttons: 'alt+g' for 'Generate', etc. Moreover,
15+
bind 'enter' to 'Generate.
16+
- Better labelled 'Load' and 'Save': what exactly is saved: the master
17+
password, the profile, etc.? Change label of 'Master' to 'Master PW'
18+
or 'Master Password'
19+
- And the killer feature that I would really love to have in a Desktop
20+
PasswordMaker client: I am quite unhappy with the security risk of
21+
copying a password to the system clipboard (see [1]), and one way to
22+
work around would be for a secure transfer from PasswordMaker Python
23+
to the input field of the password. For example, after generating the
24+
password, the user would refocus the password input field in the
25+
browser and hit a 'ctrl+alt+`' or similar global keybinding (analogous
26+
to the CoolKey in the Firefox Extension) which would insert the
27+
password into the password field without passing via the system
28+
clipboard. Thus someone else using the computer later cannot recover
29+
any given password via an uncleared clipboard.
30+
- Perhaps also a 'Mask password' feature (especially if the above is
31+
implemented) to display blank or stars instead of the actual password.
32+
And maybe a 'Copy' button.
