Read-only password
I recently stored a passphrase for encryption that is never supposed to change. If I store it as a password the "Create new password" function might overwrite the passphrase. I know that I can recover older passwords but it would be convenient to have a field named "read only password" or something similar. It could for example ask if I really want to change the password. Maybe this feature already exists?

Hi @oekdbzlq82,
I'll be happy to share your helpful feature request with the rest of the team for consideration.
At the moment, if you have the "Edit Items" or "Allow Editing" permissions for a vault in 1Password, you'll have the ability to overwrite an existing password with a few steps. There are some safeguards after clicking "Create a new password in the 1Password 8 app, however:
- You'll need to click the "use" button to confirm you wish to overwrite the password.
- From there, clicking "Save" is required to confirm the change. If you instead click "cancel", the original password will remain unchanged.
- Finally, if you accidentally save the change, you can restore the item to a previous version using item history.
You could also add a custom "text" field instead, if the credential isn't too sensitive, though this will not be concealed and can still be changed by someone with the appropriate permissions.
