I have the following extensions installed for SeaMonkey 2.2: * Password Exporter 1.2.1 (http://passwordexporter.fligtar.com) Accessed through the SeaMonkey menu bar via [Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Passwords], where the extension adds a button. Among the features is the ability to get a Password Manager window in the form it had in SM 2.0.x. This is a partial work-around for bug #664574 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664574>, only for the Password Manager portion of that RFE. * Show Password On Input 0.1.4 (https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/addon/6143/) If I left-click on the ***** that obscures a password and then right-click, the pull-down context menu has an added item "Show password". This is a work-around for bug #502258 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=502258>. File install.rdf had to be tweaked for SM 2.2 compatibility. * Show my Password 2.0 (http://netcat.ath.cx/extensions.html) In the dialogue popup for entering a master password, this provides a checkbox to show the actual master password. This is a work-around for bug #232050 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232050>. File install.rdf had to be tweaked for SM 2.2 compatibility. -- David E.
