It’s irritating to me that there’s no standard integration between password managers and authentication elements on a page. We can do this correctly if we want.

It’s irritating to me that there’s no standard integration between password managers and authentication elements on a page. We can do this correctly if we want. Furthermore, I’d love some standard programmatic way to change passwords and communicate complexity and rotation timelines. If I use a password manager anyway, it should just deal with changing my password if some organization decides to use a backwards rotation policy with specific special characters.
