Currently with default settings, generated password is 12 characters long, in current character set it gives entropy between 64bits and 80bits.
This entropy should be at least 128bits to feel safe nowadays, so default settings of password length should be 22. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength)
