Thanks for taking the time to pen a thoughtful response. I really appreciate the point about training users to enter login credentials, how it might be risky, and also that this could lead to a false sense of security.

That being said, I do think that these features will overall lead to better password hygiene for people who do not have access to the kinds of info we have (especially where FF warns about passwords shared across sites; that's a feature that iOS does fairly well; in KeyChain, they show a warning label next to a password shared between multiple sites).

P.S. The point about securing a list of sites that you have passwords for is fantastic as well.
