It's odd that the linked bug report references and complains about W3C specs when browser/HTML specs have been coming from WHATWG for well over ten years now. W3C has ceased publishing HTML with W3C HTML 5.2 in 2017, and has announced an intent to merely publish WHATWG snapshots going forward; so far, I'm not aware of any actual work under this model by W3C.
But OTOH that Chromium interprets form field names heuristically to enable auto-autocomplete is worrying, and reflects poorly on the whole "standardization" process by WHATWG.
