#2344 Allow placeholders in username field of templates/settings

[Alexandre]

Hello,

I'm trying to use placeholders in username for new entries, but it doesn't seems possible, could you support this?

What I tried:
- editing Default username in DB settings
- use an Entry template with placeholder in username
But none got the field replaced and the new entry showed the placeholder tag instead.

Possible usage:
- random username
- templated username
- use the outputs of plugins, as seen in https://sourceforge.net/p/keepass/feature-requests/2303/ (the " use the password generator with profiles, then copy the result to the username box" or NOT user-friendly at all)

Thanks :)

This is exactly what I meant back in 2016!

This thread has a mechanism for templates.
