plenty of stuff (like credit card info for instance) should absolutely never be auto-completed. The browser storing that sorta stuff to disk is stupid and completely avoidable. Already caught chrome doing this to my Social Security Number before i disabled the functionality entirely. The idea of Chrome automatically auto filling any form it sees labeled "SSN" on any site dosen't inspire confidence.

One CRM webapp I worked on took our frontenders several attempts at different hacks to get Chrome to stop treating the SSN-equiv field as a credit card autofill.

  What are the odds that those hacks have been broken by Chrome updates since then?

    Probably pretty high. I'm not on that team anymore, but the end users would have complained if it had happened.
