Yes, and every developer who understands what autocomplete="off" is supposed to do uses it with the expectation that browsers listen to that hint.
Google directly breaks developers' intentions. Chrome literally breaks implementations by ignoring this attribute that every browser respects - including previous versions of Chrome. Enabling autocomplete when it is explicitly disabled by a developer destroys UIs that provide their own replacement autocomplete functionality where it makes sense to do so.
Chrome is the worst with disrespecting developers' intentions. Even worse than this bug is the one where Chrome disbales autocomplete when specifically desired, if their broken "autodetection of login form" fails. I've had login forms, where we want the bloody autocomplete to work, not function because Chrome has their own algorithm for this shit rather than respecting the developer's wish to explicitly even enable it.
