I really think the Password Manager (the "choose user modal") should show even 
if there's only *one* user/password stored. That is beacuse, ponder you in 
spite want to enter a different user/password. Then you'll have to go to the 
form and select/cut. If the password manager had shown, it would just have been 
a matter of pressing "cancel".
You would be adding keystrokes to the password-manager use.  The fact that the 
prefill is automatic is a plus.  If you didn't want that password prefilled, you 
should not have saved it.

Yeah but when Bug 108166 is implemented, there wouldn't be any additional
keystrokes. In fact, it would save the ammount of such in cases you need to
enter a new password that's not stored. Reopen?
I'll give it a try. Opening.

I don't see the point of this bug.  If password manager shows a dialog with 
a "submit" button, you haven't saved any clicks (you could have just clicked 
the site's "log in" button).  And if you didn't want to log in, you had to 
waste time pressing cancel.  Recommend wontfix.
Hakon, looks like Ruderman, Preston, and myself are all in agreement that this 
is a wont-fix.  Closing it out as such (again).

Very well. Let me just clarify, I never said that it would be easier to login
generally. What i meant was that if you are to enter a NEW login/password, you
wouldn't have to manually delete the forms, but simply press one button
(cancel). The reason for this could be either that you are to set up a new
account, or that someone is borrowing your computer.
It's true that it would require a "Cancel" if you don't want to login, but it
would be quite more uncommon to do that, instead of just logging in. And after
all it would be no worse than with multiple passwords, where you are already
required to press cancel.
