Another site that demonstrates the issue (disclosure: using the same underlying JS library)...

https://mylofi.github.io/webauthn-local-client/

Go there, click the third button (near the bottom) "choose authentication method", then click "provide my user id", and then click into the <input> box. In chrome, this will offer an autofill popup to select a passkey, but in FF no such autofill popup appears (with or without a previously registered passkey.

Let's treat this as a bug report for now. We could treat this as a site-breakage-report only if we'd have a "real site", not a testcase/demo.

I don't think we have <input autocomplete="webauthn"> implemented.

edit: we have it implemented since 122

John said he'll take a look, thanks John!

I get the expected behavior (dropdown with passkey options) if I manually change the form from <input type="text" ...> to <input type="password" ...>. So this looks like an issue with the form type heuristics.

Issam: does this belong in Toolkit :: Password Manager?

Yes it does. It seems like something is wrong with the detection. Moved to PM Site Compat.
