#2672 Ability to open the password generator on a string field

[Sworddragon]

In my keepass database I have some entries with string fields containing extra data linked to some logins. Specifically some of them are answers to security questions which some services require. But security questions are potentially problematic and if answered correctly they can eventually endanger your account - and so I always enter a unique password as answer to avoid dropping my account security. I guess this might also not be the only case somebody saves password-like values into string fields.

In those cases it is useful if the string fields would allow similar to password fields to open the password manager to generate and directly store the password into the string field and on editing to derive the settings. Besides of the convience to more easily generate a password-like string field it would also make it possible to easily iterate all those string fields to check them for minimum security (via the derived password generator settings) at some later point.

The KPEnhancedEntryView plugin can open the password generator on string fields.
