the new Login Manager pop-down bar doesn't indicate the domain it's requesting a saved password from. In my corporate environment, we have an NT Login (with a blank HTTP realm) request before we can browse, (currently unsavable per bug #405655).

The "save password" diaglog shows up on whatever page you happen to be on when it requests these credentials, so I get confused as to why some random page would be asking to save my login information, since request is not really coming from the page I'm viewing.

It should show the domain/URL in the bar. I would be happy with all the time, but if you like the cleanliness of it now, then only display it when it doesn't match the current viewable page.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. get a non-HTTP/blank HTTP realm password request pop up for general browsing (not sure how to reproduce this, exactly... work at my office?)
2. put in a login and password
3. see the drop-down prompt for you to save it, but see that it _seems_ to be coming from a web site that you didn't give a login/password.
