### What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?

Configurable typing speed for Auto-Type

### Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.

Desired feature:  
Configurable typing speed for the Auto-Type feature in Password Secure, specifically:

- Delay between individual keystrokes
- Key press duration (key-down time)

Background:  
When using Password Secure in remote desktop environments (e.g. a SPICE desktop via TeamViewer or similar solutions), the Auto-Type feature produces incorrect character input. Keyboard inputs are not processed reliably in such setups.

Testing shows that this is related to the current typing speed of the Auto-Type feature. The behavior can be reproduced with other Auto-Type tools (e.g. AutoHotkey): when the delay between keystrokes is too short, incorrect input also occurs.

Benefit:  
With configurable typing speed settings, the Auto-Type feature could be flexibly adapted to different environments. This would significantly improve reliability, especially for remote desktop connections, and extend the range of use cases for the feature.

### How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?

Unfortunately, passwords have to be entered manually as a workaround.
