Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

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

Description

Attachment: Recording of the issue

Affected platforms:
Windows 10 x64

Affected versions:
All

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Firefox
2. Go to netflix.com
3. Fill in a random email in the register field
4. Click on "Try it now"
5. When you reach the Password field click on the Sign In button
6. Delete the filled-in email field and save 1 set of credentials
7. Reload the Sign In form

Expected:
The fields should be auto-filled with the complete credentials save in step 6.

Actual:
The email field will always get filled by the stand-alone email used to register.
That email is not saved in about:logins, thus users can't get rid of it.

Regression-Range:
Not a regression, can reproduce back to FX67

Netflix is the one who is pre-filling the other username and the user may actually want to use that username with a password not saved.
