Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:81.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/81.0

Steps to reproduce:

some sites use hidden bogus form fields as honey-pots
(https://www.express-schreibdienst.de/allgemein/spamschutz-fur-formulare-honeypot-statt-captcha/) and Firefox happily fills in E-Mail addresses or other info into that field

Actual results:

  1. I do not see which information is disclosed (and I might disagree to disclose it)
  2. the target site blocks access since it believes I am a spam robot

Expected results:

I do not want to turn off form auto-completion altogether, therefore
a) Firefox should not fill out hidden or fields with CSS "display:none"
b) there should alternatively a "per-destination-site" opt-out from form-filling

Summary: allow to opt out from form field auto fill → allow to opt out from form field auto fill "per destination site"

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