I think the soon-to-be-released Version 2.1 might have this form-filling
function re-installed as part of it's Data Manager function.

No, but the add-on that worked for SM 2.0 should also work for 2.1.

So, Jens, what is meant by (from the page I linked to previously):-

"The new Data Manager now unifies cookie, permission, password, and form
data management."

particularly the last three words??

It means that SM 2.1 includes the new Data Manager which allows you to, among other things, list and individually remove form field values that are used for form field auto-completion. This data is shown under the "*" pseudo-domain. In this way it offers a subset of the functionality of the Form History Control add-on, or differently put, a means of managing the form data available since SM 2.0.

What it does not offer/include is the functionality provided by SM 1.x, i.e. a per-site, configurable form manager with the ability to fill whole forms. That is still only available using add-ons such as Autofill Forms.
