>
> Ranger does not permit pasting values from the clipboard into the password
> field within the admin UI. This blocks the use of password managers and makes
> entry of complex passwords difficult. This does not contribute to the
> security of Ranger and encourages use of less secure passwords and this
> feature should be removed.
