Functional Improvements

Having recently given in to the nags I have ‘upgraded’ from v7 to v8. I use 1Password for my job and use it for credentials across multiple systems, operating systems, websites and access mechanisms. It is installed on Windows, Linux and iOS devices. There are a lot of things that I do not like about version 8 and the functionality changes are causing me a lot of frustration and slow downs.

1. In v7 you could right click on an entry and select which part of the credential you wanted to be ‘typed in window’, so you could quickly send a username and then password to a system for authentication. This is missing completely  in v8, as you have to first go into the entry.
2. ‘Type in window’ is available in v8, but why do I have to watch and wait while each character is typed? I am so used to v7 where I could type in windows then immediately press enter to complete the authentication. I frequently have authentication failing because this ‘pretty’ feature takes time to complete. Could an option be added so that type in window can be instant like a paste, rather than having to wait? When you are authenticating against 10’s of different systems every hour the delays become significant. I had a very long ‘credential’ the other day that took over 10 seconds to complete.
3. Drag and drop of credentials is affected by 2. above. Please can this be instant as well.
4. The new style UI is wasting too much space, even when set to compact. I prefer to have things tightly spaced, so I can see more data on my screen and less white space. This is a problem that is not unique to 1Password, but non the less frustrating, as it means more searching or scrolling to find the credential required. Even with tags to group credentials I struggle.

I would appreciate if this was shared with the developers, as I do not think any of the above would require significant effort, especially since some of this functionality has been removed since v7.
