I login into an insecure login form, I see the warning and decide to ignore it.
I then see a request to save the login information in Firefox, but I don't want to save both username and password.
If I then try to login into the same form, double clicking into the field doesn't show the previously used username, while that happens on secure login forms.
It seems like a bug, since I can easily save the full login on a such form, there seems to be no reason to show existing usernames.
Attached is the log with signon.debug set to true, following mconley's suggestion.

Behavior also doesn't change if I set signon.autofillForms.http to false.
Tried on 55.0a1 (2017-03-09) (64 bit) with a clean profile.

Also worth mentioning is that flod can reproduce this with signon.autofillForms.http set to true or false.

This was originally reported as an issue on our local support forum (with 52). I haven't tested it personally, but I assume it's in all versions.

This was an unfortunate side-effect of how we had to implement the insecure warning and we were aware of this downside.
