Yes! I’ve tried it before and you’re right. Unfortunately I also use vimperator (Ever since pentadactyl was more or less abandonned) with no gui, so many plugins that expect gui interaction do not work.
The implementation also leaves a lot to be desired, as it’s left up to the whims of the site owner to decide what password
strength means. One site’s “good” is another site’s “get outta here with that Fisher-Price toy password”. It’s frustrating.
So, with Discourse, rather than all that, I decided we’d default on a solid absolute minimum password length of 8
characters, and then verify the password to make sure it is not one of the 10,000 most common known passwords by
checking its hash.
How is that not equally the whim of the site owner?
This
Password manager.
My password manager (pass) is not intergrated into my browser, so I still have to copy paste from the command line to the form.
There’s a fairly good extension if you use firefox:

I’d try to get something working, since integrated password managers are fantastic at foiling phishing attacks.

Fewer arbitrary constraints. There’s a very good reason for both constraints listed here (min 8 chars and blacklist of common passwords).
