My above comment is final as far as I’m concerned.

> As you can see the patch blocks 44496. Is there any chance to put this patch into WebKit? If not please give me an advise how I can customize it (or patch for WebKit-Efl) to a present password manager of WebKit.

Putting a “password manager” into WebKit is not appropriate. Instead this should be built into applications using WebKit as has been done in the past. Perhaps WebKit-EFL does not yet provide the appropriate hooks, and if so, then feel free to work with the maintainers of the WebKit-EFL API to add those hooks.
