Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
When I enter my case-sensitive name in an edit box (using mediawiki
login, for example), and a correctly-spelled but all lower-case entry
exists in the drop-down of previous entries for that field, Firefox
substitutes the lower-case entry for the correct entry as soon as the
edit field loses focus.
Example:
Having previously entered "vikolliver" in error, I enter "VikOlliver"
into the username field.
When I [tab] to the password field, the "vikolliver" entry is
automagically placed in the username field.
The only way I found to get out of this is to delete the incorrect entry
by highlighting it in the dropdown and then pressing [Shift][Del] - not
something your average user is going to do (I had help with that).
Vik :v)
