Limit allowable symbols on password generation

We would all like to have complete freedom in chosing our passwords for different websites. But often sites will only allow a limited number of symbols in the password.
I would like to be able to specify which symbols are "allowable" when generating passwords. If a site requires at least one symbol in the password, currently what I do is limit the number of symbols down to either one or two, and hit generate until by chance an allowable symbol, or combination of symbols appears. This is very tedious and limits the usability of the app for many websites.
Could this be a potential feature rolling out to a future version of 1password?

    @muxedup: It's something we're considering. The challenge is making it easy to use and accommodating for the many, many different scenarios out there. Hopefully we'll be able to strike a good balance. Thanks for letting us know you'd appreciate that feature! :)
