Form autocompletion

Most, if not all, browsers offer to a) provide autocompletion for form fields based on previous inputs, and b) offer to remember username and password. This can be very convenient. This can be very annoying when it happens at the wrong places (like filling in your password in an edit form for another user).

Desired behaviour

• Create user
  • browser doesn't fill in username&password
  • browser doesn't autocomplete password when entering a recognised username
  • browser doesn't save username&password on edit form
• Login
  • browser doesn't offer username&password from create user form
  • browser offers to remember password on login
• Login again (after logout)
  • browser offers to autocomplete username&password
• User profile
  • browser doesn't fill in username&password (or confirmation fails when not changing password)
  • browser doesn't fill in in password when entering a recognised username
  • browser may save username&password when entered
• Signup (with plugin)
  • browser offers to remember username&password on signup
