How does autocomplete=off affect password managers?

  It would disable the builtin password manager.

  Password manager applications that are not built into the browser use clipboard pasting to insert passwords into login form fields. If browsers honored autocomplete=off, websites could block the password manager applications from entering the passwords (on their own websites).

    I don't believe password managers need autocompletion to insert passwords etc. Doesn't it only disable the completion popup?
