Π’ nightly builds Firefox, on the basis of which the release of Firefox 3 will be formed on September 69, added implementation of the password generator, to enable which you need to set the parameter "signon.generation.available" in about:config. After activation, in the password management section of the configurator, in addition to the option to enable the request to save passwords, an option will appear that allows you to display a hint with an automatically generated strong password when filling out registration forms.
