Include symbols in generated passwords #8847

@barkbay

Description

@barkbay

Including symbols would help enhance password security strength. Unfortunately, it may not play well with certain configuration files or scripts (e.g., JSON or Bash), where special characters can cause parsing issues as noticed in #8842 (comment)

We should discuss how to include symbols without breaking applications, which may be challenging given that it may depends on which symbols are (randomly) used and where they are (randomly) located in the password.

Follow up of #8817 and #8842
