Steps to reproduce:

For now typing password on special page (activate link) is oftenly used.
Such page usually provides different username or no username at all.
When typing passworn on such page FireFox suggests to save it, and saves.

Actual results:

But the saved password is unusable because of username field is null or mismatch really used username.

Expected results:

I think it would be right if Firefox will NOT suggest to save password for page without username.
For all other cases it will be enough to extend password save/update form with displaying username, which's password will be saved or updated.

This kind of looks like a valid request, but the reporter filed 7 other bugs with an hour that looked like spam so maybe this is also spam.
