Comment (by xkon):
I believe that this implementation deserves it's own Page (under Settings
or Tools or somewhere..).
I'm already using it daily since all of the "users" on a project that I'm
running require an app pass (I'm adding roughly 20 new users daily at the
moment and they might have more than 1 application password).
This creates some extra load as I need to create every user (this is fine
& part of the process obviously) but then I also have to get into each
users Profile and add any application passwords needed. I won't hide of
course that usually even forget which user I have already edited so
sometimes I need to recheck here and there adding even more clicks here
and there haha.
Personally from the way that I've been working with this at least, I would
prefer to have 1 single screen for App Passwords that would essentially
facilitate:
1. Be able to add new & see existing an Application Passwords for my
account,similar to what exists in Profile edit (any user with appropriate
access)
2. A list table so I can easily see which users are using app passwords, I
can either way see it via profile edit already it would just make my life
way easier (admin only).
3. An extra form that would consist of a dropdown option or search box
(list of usernames basically) and application name to create a new
Application Password for any user in an easier way than going to each
profile of any given user (admin only).
Is this something that we could consider maybe just in case it would be
more helpful this way?
To avoid losing scope on this ticket also do tell me if you want me to
pass these thoughts on a new ticket and maybe add some screenshots for an
easier view of this proposal :) .
