Thanks Sean!
I'll have to give some thought as to whether PasswordGenerator should be an 
interface
that rules implement.
It also seems like you would want to consolidate generation over several rules, 
but
on the surface that appears to be very difficult.
Great stuff, I'll try to get this merged in the next month or so.

Committed in r1115.
Added constructor that accepts non-alphanumeric characters, as that seems like a
field that users might want to customize.
Modified the code the fills out the password length to use all available 
characters.
Check out the latest snapshot and let me know what you think.

Attached patch to avoid Collections.shuffle and duplication of character data.

Just noticed I had inadvertently truncated a Javadoc comment on previous diff. 
Corrected patch is attached.

Applied your patch in r1125.
Also removed the final declaration and made the fields protected for 
overloading.
Did you run any tests to confirm your patch is more performant than
Collections.shuffle()?
