            Bug ID: 159051
           Summary: Forms/inputs don't respect autocomplete=off
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 9
          Hardware: All
                OS: OS X 10.10
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: samuel at oriontransfer.org

We have several internal systems where you manage other users usernames and passwords. Even when using autoccomplete=off, Safari attempts to fill in the fields with your own data. When autocomplete=off is set, Safari should not attempt to fill in the form.

As a side effect of this, lots of work-arounds have been proposed, e.g. naming form fields differently, using JavaScript to trick the autocomplete system. IMHO this is completely insane.

However, if this is not possible to simply respect autocomplete=off due to high level policy, perhaps a user-facing feature e.g. right-click and "Disable auto-complete for this page" would be sufficient.
