*Specification*
https://wicg.github.io/autofill-event

*Summary*
Autofill is a key feature of the web that reduces friction for millions of
users everyday. But getting autofill to work reliably with dynamic forms
across multiple implementations requires jumping through many hoops. This
feature adds an "autofill" event that would allow developers to modify
their forms to fit the autofilled data and let the browser know when they
have done so.

*Blink component*
Blink <https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=customfield1222907:%22Blink%22>

*Web Feature ID*
Missing feature

*Motivation*
Autofill today relies on static forms, but address forms are dynamic,
almost by definition. Addresses around the world have different fields and
requirements, and developers have to reconcile that dynamic nature with
autofill's static nature. Some browser heuristics are simplifying that task
in some implementations, but dealing with that implementation-specific
complexity requires jumping through a bunch of hoops. This feature will
enable developers to be notified of autofill-filled values, modify the form
to match the filled data and let the browser know when that modification
happened, enabling the browser to refill the data in the adapted form.
