To clarify: are we talking about generating mnemonics like in the
playground in a menu item?

I showed the password playground to a friend (and xoogler) yesterday who
was strongly opposed to us deploying this on anything but one site (e.g.
we should not make this available for other sites to use as a service on
the web). If sites starting linking to the playground from their
password manager, we would indirectly be encouraging password reuse. He
felt that people would just start using the playground like a password
generator entering the same phrase everywhere.
He suggests that instead of a 1Password-style password manager, we
should instead be exploring a password generator not unlike:
https://oneshallpass.com/
or
http://www.supergenpass.com/mobile/
…which combines a phrase with the hostname and generates a strong
password, but doesn’t actually store passwords.
There are a upsides and downsides to this approach as it’s so radically
different, but I’m going to explore the idea of native support in the
browser, likely in some kind of Australis-menu item.

Here’s the prototype I built for intern Greg this
summer:http://people.mozilla.org/~jgruen/passwords/mnemonic/#mn-two
Ryan, your mockup shows color changing letters in a <textarea>,
whereas my prototype uses a second <div> to highlight first chars of
each substring. Off the top of my head, IDK how to implement the
color change directly in a <textarea>. I’m sure there’s a hack out
there somewhere, but I’m open to suggestions.
Here's an idea: instead of a textarea, you could use a sized div with
a solid border and contenteditable set to "true".
You could drop in some jQuery if you need it to be draggable-resizable.
Have fun :-)

Nick and Shane, also.
I’m thinking something very quick and dirty here. Maybe something we
can enable/disable with a feature toggle, or only show to a small
number of users to start.

Hi all,
I had a chat with Chris Karlof today about a tool to help users
create better passwords. Based on some early work I did, and
further development by Greg Norcie and John Gruen, I’m hoping we
can create a little wizard to do just that.
I created an issue which includes a link to the wireframes:
https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-content-server/issues/1732
This is something we can deploy for FxA but also eventually offer
to other sites on the web as a service (they can link or use an
iframe overlay).
Zaach and Vlad, is this something that’s possible for the next two
weeks?
Katie, we’d also like to track impressions and click-thrus. How
many people take advantage of a tool that helps them make a better
password when it’s available? (you might see where we’re doing with
this).
Take a look, and feedback appreciated (keep in mind I’d love to
keep it down to one screen though).
