That would be a good idea, but I like the simple system of add-on prefs... I know that some websites don't allow special chars in passwords, some have a length restriction. But I want to keep the addon simple and easy to use. Maybe a "Edit profiles" button in addon prefs, which would open a dialog to add/remove profiles, and add a "Profile" button in the panel to select a specific profile. It may be useful to remember each website's preferred profile too. That's a little bit of work, as you stated.
An easier approach (but less functional?) would be as you said to add a "Settings" button in the panel to edit charset and password length (just for the current website?). I don't know how to manage to design a nice UI with this idea.
I won't use simple-prefs
anymore if I implement this, I'll have to switch to the preferences service: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/SDK/Low-Level_APIs/preferences_service
https://github.com/wijjo/passhash https://addons.mozilla.org/zh-CN/firefox/addon/password-hasher/?src=search maybe this is helpful I like passhash(but it doesnot has an android version ), I like firefox-passwordmaker and I hope I can help impove it ,and make it more powerful
Maybe a good idea will be to configure global settings in prefs, and per-site settings in the popover. Also see #10.

First, thanks for building this! PasswordMaker's falling apart with each release of Firefox...so I was very happy to find this addon this morning!
Second, the one feature I use often with PasswordMaker X on Android is profiles--one for alphanumeric only (for non-symbol friendly sites) and sub-domain handling.
It'd be great to either have a Profiles section (which I think is beyond what the simple preferences system in Add-on SDK FF addons can handle...so...more work) or just an "Advanced Options" accordion section in the panel that when clicked would load the list of frequently changed preferences (or maybe just the whole list).
Thanks again for building this addon!
