> On Android, when using the password generator on editing a new site, in order to complete the process I had to copy/paste the new password. This is bad, on Android at least, as the clipboard on Android is public and any so can listen to it. And again, on viewing the password, it got truncated, so the user is forced to copy/paste it.

I think KeePass circumvents this by having a virtual keyboard that is used to deliver the passwords securely to the destination application/form. I haven't heard of any better solutions, or any serious attacks against the virtual keyboard method.
