Easy to use and powerful

This is a very clean and handy extension. I was glad to find it, it perfectly matches my need to very quickly and easily generate strong random passwords any time I want to create a new account. The history and the single-click copy of generated password are great features. Many thanks to the developer for contributing this to the community !
