215348 - Where in the _world_ is the UI option for deleting form manager entries?

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 107981

(Toolkit :: Form Manager, defect)

Description

[Stewart]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030727
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030727

After using "Edit->Save Form Info" to store a form's information (because the
page failed to finish loading), I reloaded the page and discovered that I had to
retype the MLE entries anyway.  Afterward, I searched for a way to remove the
information from the form manager.  I could not find any way to erase all form
information associated with the page, nor could I find any way to erase form
information one entry at a time.  The button to erase everything is far too much
for this...

BTW, I _did_ find a way to remove the information:  I erased the appropriate
lines from the .w file in the Profile directory.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save some pointless web site's form information.
2. Realize that there was no reason to keep the information, or realize the
information is completely out of date, or was part of a complaint, etc.
3. Search for some way to erase the information, using the UI.
4. If you find it, say so.  I'd love to know!


Actual Results:  
I was rather annoyed, but (as stated) I located the appropriate file to modify,
manually.

Expected Results:  
A button for erasing form manager entries under the "URL-specific" section would
be nice.  Maybe check boxes next to each item, in that big empty space to the
right of each entry?

...what he said.  Duping against the more useful of the suggestions, 107981.
