"Words" password generator in X/online adds spaces instead of dashes between words

In 1PW on Mac/iOS, the password generator using words or phrases adds a dash (by default) and has choices for separator. Online (and with 1PasswordX extension), the words generator uses a space as a separator with no option to choose. Spaces are almost never allowed in passwords, so I'd like to suggest the online generator use dashes or give the choice. Thanks!

    Hey @themartorana! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I rarely use the generator on 1Password.com so I hadn't previously noticed the lack of an option to choose a word separator, but I can see how that'd be frustrating. I've gone ahead and filed an issue with the 1Password.com team to get this on their radar. The password generator in the 1Password X pop-up is, however, very robust and does indeed include that option. There are lots of options so I can see missing that one, though. Here's a screenshot to help you find it:

    I have noticed the same problem. Add my vote for fixing this!

    Eventually the new password generator will be added everywhere. ;)
