Description David Scheck 2006-09-20 10:37:41 PDT 
Using the secondary secure keychain Mac OS X is a nice way to store all your web username/passwords in one place.   If you turn on Safari's autocomplete passwords you can manually lock/unlock this secondary keychain when you are using sensitive websites.   The problem lately is that most of these websites are putting the autocomplete='off' in their html so Safari wont attempt to store them/retrieve them from you keychain.   There should be some override provided so that you can still stores these values in the keychain.

The bug is irrelevant to Webkit in my opinion. It's Safari UI issue. You should file enhancement request via http://bugreport.apple.com.

This is a Safari issue.  Marking as RESOVLED/INVALID because this can't be fixed in WebKit.  See:
