Show the maxlength property when generating passwords

Would it be possible to include the property as a hint in the password generator? A lot of times I have to re-generate passwords because some sites have this property set, but do no provide any hint on the web page. I am savvy enough to use the inspector after the first failure, but this is not a very friendly way to figure out the issue.

    Hi @Fooligan,

    While you're savvy enough to go looking for certain HTML attributes, which may or may not be present, you're not only correct that this isn't friendly but it's also extremely unreasonable to expect the majority to know or be happy doing. While having a site fully explain all the restrictions/requirements of a valid password seems to be impractical based on current standards (I could be wrong of course) this one does seem like something we can do something about if it's present. We do have a feature request and I will add your voice to see this happen.
