User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 Steps to reproduce: I came here with firefox to upvote one bug in firefox, but when I logged in, I was forced to change a password because it does not meet "your" standards. I've entered a new one, hit update button in the page, then Update in the broswer dialog, however after that the "Password not accepted, does not meet... blabla" appeared in the result page - however password is already updated in the password manager and I lost the old password! I thougth the broswer is offering password manager password update only after a successful response from the server... Actual results: PWMGR overwriten old password with the new that was not accepted. Expected results: The page should not accept the password rigth after you enter it...
