I have seen several sites for which Password Manager does not prompt to save the
password. Can it be changed to handle more situations? A couple sites in
particular are: online.wellsfargo.com and login.yahoo.com.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to site and attempt to log in.
Actual Results:  
Login works but password manager does not prompt.

Expected Results:  
Password manager should prompt to save password.

wellsfargo; see bug 63961: Wells Fargo will deny access to Mozilla if they can't
turn off password storage.

Same issue at yahoo and others: bug 93776

For a possible workaround, involving encrypted master password, see
