Imagine how much code like this is inside our "lightweight" browsers.

All the code reviews that passed this on to production make you wonder how competent these browser makers actually are..

I think that the browser should not treat every input field as a personal info form for the current user. There are plenty of cases of web apps I can think of where disabling autocomplete is best user experience overall.




It scares the hell out of me thinking about this type of hacky trash anywhere near crypto or sandbox code. I like to think that they have more experienced people working on that, but I'm not quite naive enough to really believe it.
