1178055 - Password is not auto-filled on login.persona.org

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Toolkit :: Password Manager: Site Compatibility, defect)

Description

[arni2033]

Attachment: Password is not auto-filled (note I've changed the password).webm

Tested on Nightly 41.0a1 (2015-06-26) without using master password.
Have no idea on what causes this bug, but it always happens for me on https://login.persona.org/sign_in

// Of course I changed password after recording this screencast so this isn't private information.

I think there is an existing bug on this and it may be an issue with the website. Could you attach logging? https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox:Password_Manager_Debugging

Thanks for that page. It says there's 4 cases in which login/password are not filled. So I checked it again in normal mode, and the behavior was the same.
Sorry for recording Private-Mode though.
How does that Persona service is supposed to auto-fill login/password? Please, tell.

In the LOG you can read what actions I made and what messages to the console were caused by my actions.

How to reproduce
(only works if you visit Bugzilla through persona.org and have only 1 pair login/password) :
1. Log out from bugzilla.mozilla.org (make sure you remember persona password)
2. Delete cookies related to persona.org
3. Go to Bugzilla and try to log in through Persona

Currently I can't even tell if Persona was designed to operate like this. If it should, then this is definitely not a valid bug. But that's still strange behavior.

Sadly I can confirm with Firefox 40 beta 7, maybe per-site recipes could help here?

Sorry for delay here. This behavior remains in IE11 & GChr36. I think its Persona thing so maybe change component to "Persona" [Once again, I'm not the one who knows how Persona supposed to work]

It is a webpage and I'm expecting Firefox will offer to store and fill password for it.

Since persona.org has been shut down, I think we can wontfix this one
