User reviews

The extension is pretty good and useful. Just one suggestion, use different icons for "show" and "hide" password.

It works for most sites! Fails on some sites that uses custom CSS on input fields. JavaScript should be encapsulated, because the way it is right now it just shows variables and functions and listeners all over the global scope, which is a big no in a browser extension!
