When a user submits a login form with an unfamiliar username (i.e. one which is not on the list of remembered usernames nor on the list of usernames to never remember), in lieu of displaying a modal save password dialog before submitting the form, Firefox should instead display a save password bar (most likely in the same style and placement as the popup blocker bar) after loading the login results page. The save password bar should ask the same question and provide the same options as the current save password dialog box, but it should not insist on an answer before allowing the user to proceed, and it should disappear once the user browses to a different page. Then users will be able to choose whether to save the password after seeing if their login has succeeded or failed, and they won't be forced to make a choice.

Should probably be a UI suggestion for bug 226735, no?
