Firefox uses internal routines to save login/passwd information. Instead it should use Keychain which would make it tightly integrated with OS X and will attract more users.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. visit website which prompts you to enter login/passwd
2. observe that login details are saved via internal mechanism instead of Keychain

Actual Results:  
password manager is used for storing login info

Expected Results:  
Keychain should be used
