Sometimes I get my usernames mixed up for a site and accidently use the wrong
one. Then, whenever I revisit the site, I am prompted to choose between names.
It would be great if I could right click the bad one and remove it rather than
digging through the stored passwords in my preferences. On another note, my
'view saved passwords' button does not do anything.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. visit a site
2. be an idiot and type the wrong username
3. type the right username next login
4. revisit the site

Actual Results:  
Prompted to select between names

Expected Results:  
Prompt between names, but allow a right-click on the bad one to remove it.
Interesting thought.  bryner?

I think this has effectively been fixed; in any autocomplete dropdown you can select an item and press delete (shift-delete, on OS X) to remove the entry. A right-click context menu for a autocomplete menu would seem a bit odd, and it probably no more discoverable. I think the delete thing is already fairly standard by now.

Marking WONTFIX, since the right-click thing itself isn't what was implemented.
