How do I save Password Criteria in a saved login? [Not available but something we consider]

Some services require you to change you password annoyingly often, like every 3 months for example. Unfortunately, there is currently no easy way to very quickly generate a new password for an already saved login that meets the required criteria. (Whenever you generate a new password, the most recently generated password's settings are recalled) Also, there is no way to extract the criteria used for a previously used password.

In other words, I may have 5 previous passwords, but I don't know how long they are (without counting each little black dot, come on...), or how many digits/symbols were used. So I have to figure that out each time I create a new one.

Storing these criterion within the login would be extremely helpful.

Thanks,
Marcus
