Feature Request: remember per-login password generator recipes
BLUF: 1Password should optionally remember and re-use login-item-specific password recipes, instead of using only the recipe that was last used anywhere (globally) within 1Password.
I really like and rely upon 1Password's password generator feature, but have been encountering the following frustration: I have accounts on several different systems that require frequent password changes and which have very specific (and different) password requirements. For example, one system requires a password to be EXACTLY eleven (11) characters long, must contain NO symbols (only letters and numbers), and must contain EXACTLY two numbers. I normally generate very strong passwords for other systems, and the password generator as currently implemented defaults to the last password recipe used ANYWHERE within 1Password... so each time I have to change my password on these particular systems, I have to manually set the recipe to these (rather ridiculous) requirements. This isn't the end of the world, but it's a frequent annoyance and point of friction in a utility that otherwise only makes my life easier and more pleasant!
It would be so helpful if 1Password could remember and re-use the specific password generator recipe used for a particular login - perhaps this could be turned on via a checkbox along the lines of "Always use this recipe for this login".
Thanks!

@edifyyo - thanks for the suggestion! That's actually something we've heard before, and we're considering it for inclusion in upcoming releases. I personally like this concept, but I don't have anything to share as far as a timetable for when you might see such a thing. However, keep an eye on updates or -- if you're feeling adventurous -- go to Preferences > Updates and click "Include beta builds" to be one of the first to get access to new or experimental features; that's where they'll show up first.
