1Password 8 can't copy password while editing
Since switching to 1Password 8 I'm not able to copy a password while editing or generating a password entry. This is inconvenient when trying to generate a password for a site without clearly defined...

I do want to note that you can copy new passwords from the Password Generator in extension. Because most people use the extension to generate new passwords, that is where that feature has been most applicable. Is there a reason why you're generating a password from the app and not from the Password Generator in the extension?
I had to dig to find what you were talking about. If I click the extension and click the "New Item" button to create a login for a new site, it opens the app. Or if I click Edit on an existing item it opens the app as well.
After clicking the small hamburger menu I found the Password Generator and have played with it a bit. It does not have the advantage of being able to directly tie the password to a Login item, that step becomes manual. It also doesn't remember my settings, it defaults to "Smart Password" every time even if I usually use the Random Generator.
