Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • Go to about:logins
  • Select "Add password" button

Actual results:

Add password form is shown providing the following fields:

  • Web site address
  • Username
  • Password

Expected results:

Add password form is shown providing the following fields:

  • Web site address
  • Http realm
  • Username
  • Password

Same happens if editing an existing login with http realm set: it's shown in the form header (along the domain) but it's not editable

The lack of http realm field prevent from storing credentials for URL where the save it's not possible due (in my case I have a chain of redirects each protected by http authentication, the http authentication form on step n force the login save pop from step n-1 to close so I had to enter the login credentials for each URL manually, but the only way I had to set httpRealm was to open logins.json and edit it manually to add the attribute missing from the UI)
