Many companies force users to change their passwords every couple of months.
If you have 'remember password' turned on and the server rejects the password,
we shouldn't try to log in again with the same password. We should clear out our
stored password from the password manager and re-prompt the user for the new
password.

Mozilla should ask for a new password if you get a password/username error but
not with other login errors.
It should overwrite an existing password/username if you enter new login data
and check "remember".

Christian and I have discussed this at length. The bug as described here has
been fixed and is a dup (I'll look the up dup). The actual bug remaining is
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160425, we forget the password on
any logon error.
