Steps to reproduce:

Follow-up to bug 1569581 comment 22

To reproduce, go to http://home.datacomm.ch/keller.markus/secured/login.html , enter User name: "usr", Password: "pwd", press Enter, click Save

Actual results:

On Firefox for Mac 70.0b4 and 71.0a1 (2019-09-08), the HTTP auth realm is shown right after the domain name in various places. Everywhere, the realm name is severely cut:

  • in the autocomplete drop-down for the username field, it shows:
    home.datacomm.com (Secured...
    (screenshot: see attachment 9090681 [details])
  • when I click "View Saved Logins", the new Lockwise page opens, where the list on the left shows a few more characters:
    home.datacomm.com (Secured are...
  • when I click the entry in the list, the title on the right reads:
    home.datacomm.ch (Secured area (hint: ...
  • when I click "Edit", it shows:
    home.datacomm.ch (Secured area (hint: usr/p ...

The only way I found to reveal the whole text is to triple-click the title and copy. Then the clipboard contains the full:
home.datacomm.ch (Secured area (hint: usr/pwd))

Expected results:

The full realm should be visible at least in about:logins. The excessively large title font is unnecessary.

The old Save Logins dialog

  • used a normal font size
  • allowed resizing the "site" column
  • showed a tooltip with the full text on hover

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

I'll add a tooltip for now. I'm not sure what else we can do with the current design.

Set the login-item as a title attribute so the full title can be shown as a tooltip if it is elided. r=MattN
