This will not work in SM 2.1.  See the discussion at
<http://cybernetnews.com/firefox-remember-passwords/> relative to
Firefox 4 and SM 2.1.  nsLoginManager.js is now contained in omni.jar,
which (despite its extension) is a zipped file.  I extracted
nsLoginManager.js from omni.jar and made the same edit you mentioned.
Then I zipped the updated nsLoginManager.js back into omni.jar.  Things
went downhill from there.

Someone will have to figure out what nsLoginManager.js is really doing
in Gecko 2 and whether other files in SeaMonkey's environment are now
involved.

On top of all that, Password Manager no longer handles split logins --
where the ID is input on one page and the password is input on a
subsequent page -- when the password was already saved.  Password
Manager still requests my master password in this case, but leaves the
login password blank.  It remains blank no matter how many times I click
in the input area.  This happens even though I can use Password Manager
to show me the stored password.
