Expand "entries" to not only auto generate passowrds, but auto genarete answers to "security" questions.
What do I mean by this:
Most websites these days ask a user for security questions on creating an account like:
What was the name of your first pet?
What was your first car?
What was your first job title?
What is your favorite vacation destination?
What is your Mother's madien name?
What city were you born?
What is your Highschool Mascot?
Then promplty get cracked or their database hacked with the answers to said questions. Thus giving hackers a database of "common" and exact answers to these questions that can be used on other websites to which the user can log in.
However allowing "answers" to be auto generated in KeePass where the user could add fields to the "Entry" with the questions and auto generate answers (obvoiusly not real answers) would allow the user to maintian answers to these questions if they were ever needed or simply generate them and copy paste answers. Answers that woudl be different and random for every website... glorious.
Work flow would be as follows:
1) create an entry as is currenlty done with autogenerated password
2) Provide a dynamic fields list in the Entry where the user can copy paste questions and have KeePass autogenerate "answers" like ks4u4@d7(-08$3D5 as it does for passwords and maintain the "secuirty" questions/answers key value pairs.
Thus providing the user with a solution to an atrocious web "security" practice of asking and maintaitng secuirty questions and answers.... sigh
Also this might help with 2 factor auth keys
