Ordering something from an online shop again I noticed that my credit card number was remembered and suggested for the form field.

Generally I want the Firefox to remember form data, but in this case I'd like it to _not_ to save it. I am not quite sure this is the default (my profile is a bit aged), but if it is, it is a bad one.

Suggestion: define saving form data defaults separately for http:// and https:// pages and require an explicit step to turn on the save feature for the latter, preferably with warning that the sensitive data might get saved.

Reproducible: Didn't try
