- ploxiln 12y agoquote near end for the many people who won't read the thread: - This change makes it so that `autocomplete=off` does not stop the Password Manager from working. Normal form autofill can be disabled as usual. - The password manager *always* prompts if it wants to save a password. Passwords are not saved without permission from the user. - We are the third browser to implement this change, after IE and Chrome. More clarification: password type input elements already never autofill/autocomplete like other input elements do. autocomplete=off on password type input elements just makes password managers not work (until this change). Other input elements still honor autocomplete=off.
- fpgeek 12y agoLots of great discussion, but also lots of exasperating third-party comments. While reading some of them I wanted to shake the authors and scream: "A website can't stop a user from saving a password! All you're doing is making them save it on a Post-It instead of in their password manager!"
