When having multiple sub-domains, the Store Passwords option to allow or block, can be confusing. Follow the steps to reproduce in order to get an idea of what I want to say.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new clean profile
2. Go to navigation bar and write mail.google.com
3. Go to about:permissions (You'll have two entries: mail.google.com; www.google.com)
4. Set store password "Block" for mail.google.com
5. Login into gmail.
Actual results:
- the user will be asked whether he/she wants to save the password
Expected results:
- the user shouldn't be asked to save the password
Workaround:
- Set the password store on block for www.google.com domain
This could be confusing for some users - blocking mail.google.com will be seen as not functioning.
