Firefox forms autofill doesn't work reliably.  Would like to see IE's autofll
behavior emulated, as it makes complete sense.  Current Firefox behavior works
in some form field and not others; isn't always "smart" as to what kind of field
it is.  Would be better to have an editable forms "master" rather than current
"remember forms" action; then to also have additional 2nd-priority autofill
options.  

Reproducible: Sometimes

WONTFIX INVALID 

Current Auto-complete works fine IMHO

Please be specific if you want to report a bug ...
It doesnt work like "some-other-browser" is not a bug
