stlaz commented: """ The passwords should have around the same entropy now. SHA-1 actually produces 160bit outputs (hence 40-characters long hexadecimal digests), so I recounted it for 20-bytes entropy. As ipa_generate_password creates passwords of only printable characters (and a space) by default, base64 should not be a requirement here. However, a space could be a problem somewhere I guess, should it be removed as well from the defaul behavior of the password generator?
