I have verified this issue on the latest Nightly 70.0a1 build (2019-08-11) (64 bit) on Windows 10 x64, Mac 10.14 and Arch Linux.

• The logins list is now automatically scrolled in order to reveal the newly created login.

However, we noticed that this fix introduced a change in the previous behavior of selecting logins from the list. You can see more information about this change in bug 1573159.
