Enter credentials in the login forms with password-saving enabled and observe
you are not prompted to save your password. After some digging I found that for
these HTMLInputElements (the username and password fields),
HTMLInputElement::value() returns an empty string even though valid text was
input into the fields. Perhaps some JS in this forum software strips the fields
somehow, or something else is up.. I haven't found the underlying cause.
