 * Simplified workflow as suggested by @drewapicture, drops the eye icon -
 password is visible right after generation, and only then
 * selects password after generation to simplify copying
 * increase generated password length to 30
 * any change in the field shows the second match field and turns them both
 back to password fields
 * passes jshint :)
 * note: field type change only works in ie >8
