Comment (by ocean90):

 Some thoughts to [attachment:24633.27.patch]:

 * The JavaScript needs an overhaul. Why is `wp.passwordGenerator` used so
 often? Can't it be `this` or a shorter variable? Same for
 `wp.passwordGenerator`
 * [31483] should be included
 * `check_strength: function() {` should be `checkStrength: function() { `
 (Why does the generator has do this? Can we trigger a .change() event?)
 * `$.post()` should be replaced with `wp.ajax.post()`
 * To be consistent, the AJAX action should be `generate-password` (no
 underscore)
