No option to prevent repeat characters?
I had to create an account for a credit report site. One of the password requirements was not to have repeat characters. Didn't matter if they were consecutive or not. I don't see an option to prevent that. Is there one? If not can it be added to future versions?

@stoster1: There is no option to tell 1Password to not repeat characters when generating a random password, as that would not be random at all. I haven't heard of anything like this for years, so I'd be curious of what website it is, if you'd be willing to share it. While that's not really a good security practice, given that you're stuck in that situation, you could simply generate a new password and delete any repeated characters to meet the requirement. It's not something we have plans to have 1Password do in the future though, especially as more and more websites are adopting better security over time.
