I can't remember if I ever requested this, but it sure has bothered me for MANY years. :)
99.99% of sites take your Username and Password in that order.
Would it be possible for PS to re-arrange the Pass-Name at the top to Name-Pass?
It makes sense intuitively/instinctively/ergonomically etc.
Related to this...
Ctrl-U is the shortcut to copy the Username. That's intuitive.
Ctrl-C is the shortcut to copy the Password. That's NOT intuitive.
Ctrl-P would be much more intuitive. Is that possible?
If not, could you use ANY letter in Password for the shortcut?
Assuming you mean the order in Edit menu?
Interestingly, the context menu has the natural name-password order already :-)
I don't know where the context menu is and I don't use it.
I just open the program, find the name/pass I want to use in
my huge list of passwords and click on Username and the Password
from the top menu (backwards though).
On Windows, the context menu comes up when you do an alternative mouse click (right if left is your primary button) on an entry.

Thanks very much Alexis, this is very helpful!
I didn't know about it.
I guess now my request is not that urgent anymore. :)

No, sorry, I am talking about the order in the main menu at the top of the screen.
I just checked and even the most recent version has
Pass then Username.
Got it. Indeed, the order is Password, Username in the main menu and on the toolbar. But it is Username, Password in the context menu.
I am totally in favor of making the order Username, Password everywhere. I can make this change. @ronys, what do you think?
Oh, and yes, you can change the shortcuts in Manage - Options - Shortcuts.
I don't know how the current version works wrt shortcuts.
I just installed the current version to see what it looks like.
It's not allowing me to change shortcuts, Options is greyed out.
The previous version that I had been using up until now (2.07)
didn't have an options menu.
When I just installed version 3.21, it had an options menu
to change shortcuts, but was not working properly.
I changed the shortcut key for Password to Ctrl-P,
but when I tried to copy User and then Pass I either
got User copied all the time or Pass copied all the time,
I could never get each one to be copied alone.
