Greetings...

In regards to the Firefox Password Generator, I have two questions:

Q #1: Currently, the Firefox Password Generator appears to create random passwords that are 15 characters in length. Is there some way that I can increase the length of the randomly created passwords to a longer length, say 18 characters? Might this setting be contained at some location within "about:config" that I could edit?

Q #2: Currently, it appears that the only way to create a password for a new website in the Firefox Password Generator is when attempting to set the password while on a website. I would like to be able to create a password for a website from within the Firefox Password Generator itself. Is there some way that I could accomplish this task?

Thank you for your attention and assistance! Take care...

Hello! I really enjoy using the Firefox browser. I just wanted to suggest that you have an option to write notes in each password profile that can also be secure. My iPhone has a notes section under each password profile. I use it to write info such as my airline advantage number, the email I used with that particular website, membership numbers, etc. I'm getting up there in age, so while I'm working on simplifying my life it helps to make notes to remember stuff. Can you suggest this idea to the right people at Firefox or Mozilla? Thank you for your help and consideration. Carolyn

Note: I am using an older computer at home right now but do use a new computer at work and will be upgrading at home soon.
