Context menu item
If an <input> DOES NOT have autocomplete="new-password", we don't have a strong signal that password generation is relevant for the field (e.g. this could be a login form) and so we should be more cautious about offering generation to the user.

Hi Ryan, can you decide which UI we want to go with for manually opening the generation UI when we don't have confidence we're on a new password field?
