Hello webkit-dev'ers,

In response to the email “Improving autocomplete” to wha...@whatwg.org
[1], I plan to implement an experimental version of the proposed API
(HTMLFormElement#requestAutocomplete, onautocomplete,
onautocompleteerror).

This feature uses information derived from the new autocomplete spec
[2] to present a JS API for web developers to opt-in into a native,
interactive autocomplete flow.  This will be behind the default-off
feature flag ENABLE(REQUEST_AUTOCOMPLETE) and will be enabled for
Chromium specifically when more code on Chromium's side is landed.

You can follow along here: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100560

Thanks,

Dan Beam
