Veranderingen voor v2.41 - v2.42.1

Improved menu item state updating.
Improved backward compatibility with certain plugins.
Minor other improvements.
New Features:
Added main menu items 'Group', 'Entry' and 'Find', which contain all commands related to groups and entries (supersets of context menus); removed 'Edit' main menu item, because all of its commands are included in the three new main menu items.
Added support for a system-wide hot key to auto-type only the password of a matching entry; by default, the hot key is Ctrl+Alt+Shift+A, changeable in the options dialog.
When double-clicking the URL cell of an entry in the main entry list while holding down the Shift key, KeePass now copies the URL to the clipboard (a double-click without Shift continues to open the URL; the option 'Copy URLs to clipboard instead of opening them' reverses this behavior).
Added quick edit commands 'Expires: Now' and 'Expires: Never'.
There now are two commands for copying a whole entry to the clipboard: 'Copy Entry (Encrypted)' and 'Copy Entry (Unencrypted)'; the first one encrypts the data for the current user using the Windows DPAPI.
Added Ctrl+Shift+P shortcut for printing the currently selected group.
The creation time and the last modification time of an entry are now displayed on the 'History' tab of the entry editing dialog.
Added support for importing Steganos Password Manager 20 CSV files.
Added support for importing Bitwarden 1.12 JSON files.
Mozilla Bookmarks JSON import: added support for importing tags (new format, in addition to the old format) and keywords.
Enhanced the Enpass import module to support TXT files created by version 6.0.4.
The language selection dialog now also lists KeePass 1.x LNG files; when trying to select such a file, an informative error message is displayed.
Added 'Cancel' command in the context menu of KeePass' system tray icon, which can be used to abort opening and saving a database file.
Added '-cancel' command line option, which causes all other KeePass instances to cancel opening/saving a database file.
Added '-auto-type-password' command line option (other running KeePass instances auto-type only the password of a matching entry).
Added '-e1:' command line parameter, which works like '-e:', but is handled by only one other instance; '-e:' is handled by all other instances.
When compiling a PLGX plugin, KeePass now defines a 'KP_V_*_*_*' symbol, where the asterisks specify the KeePass version (for example, 'KP_V_2_42_0' for version 2.42).
Added workarounds for .NET Caps Lock warning tooltip bug.
Added workaround for Mono grid view default color bug.
Added workaround for OneDrive bug on Windows 1809.

The pattern-based password generator now refuses to generate a password if the pattern is (partially) invalid.
Turning off the 'Unhide Passwords' policy now enforces hiding passwords in a few more places/situations.
New-line characters at the end of the output of a {CMD:...} placeholder are now removed (analogous to $(...) and `...` shell command substitutions).
The {URL:SCM} and {BASE:SCM} placeholders now work with arbitrary data having a ':'-terminated prefix.
Improved {URL:RMVSCM} and {BASE:RMVSCM} placeholders ('//' authority prefix is removed, but not '/').
The '-entry-url-open' command line option is now handled by all other KeePass instances (instead of only one).
Path traversal with attachment names is not possible anymore.
Removed the option 'Show tray icon only if main window has been sent to tray' from the options dialog (due to possible denial-of-service problems); if you want to hide the icon, it is recommended to configure this in the system settings instead.
Improved reading of KDBX XML documents with unknown elements.
Improved JSON parser.
Various UI text improvements.
Various code optimizations.
Minor other improvements.
Bugfixes:

Native master key transformations (rounds) are now computed by the native KeePassLibC support library (which contains the new, highly optimized transformation code used by KeePass 1.15, in two threads); on dual/multi core processors this results in almost triple the performance as before (by tripling the amount of rounds you'll get the same waiting time as in 2.06, but the protection against dictionary and guessing attacks is tripled).
Added recycle bin (enabled by default, it can be disabled in the database settings dialog).

Master key transformations (rounds) are now computed in two threads; on dual/multi core processors this results in almost twice the performance as before (by doubling the amount of rounds you'll get the same waiting time as in 1.10, but the protection against dictionary and guessing attack is doubled).
On Windows Vista, some of the message boxes are now displayed as modern task dialogs.
Database files are now verified (read and hashed) after writing them to disk (in order to prevent data loss caused by damaged/broken devices and/or file systems).
When saving databases to removable media, KeePass now tries to lock and unlock the volume, which effectively flushes all system caches related to this drive (this prevents data loss caused by removing USB sticks without correctly unmounting in Windows first; but it only works when no other program is using the drive).
Improved database file writing algorithm (small block writes and explicit flushing).
The system's INI cache is now flushed before copying the temporary global INI file to the application directory (improves Windows 95 / 98 / ME compatibility).
Added placeholders for referencing fields of other entries (dereferenced when starting URLs and performing auto-type, see the auto-type placeholders documentation).
Added natural sorting (when sorting the entry list, KeePass now performs a human-like comparison instead of a simple lexicographical one; this sorts entries with numbers more logically; only supported with ShlWApi/IE 6.0.2800).
Added pattern placeholder 's' to generate special characters of the printable 7-bit ASCII character set.
KeePass now locks when the system is suspending (if the option for locking on locking Windows or switching user is enabled).

In mini mode, clicking the 'Generate Password' button in the entry window immediately generates a new password based on the automatic generation profile, instead of showing the password generator dialog.
In mini mode, the URL field is replaced by a combo box, in which you can select one of the plugin-provided user applications (KPM_USERAPP_GETFIRST and KPM_USERAPP_GETNEXT).
Improvements:
If natural sorting is supported, TANs are not prefixed with zeros anymore.
Removed 'Loading error' message that appeared when checking for an update and a new version is available.
TAN indices are now stored in the user name field (the notes field can therefore be used now for storing confirmation messages and/or transaction details).
