> So think of the autocomplete=off flag as a flag to make sure you are using a competent password manager No, what happens is that autocomplete=off flag is a flag to make sure you are using your brain as a password manager, which experience has shown to be a terrible idea. Instead of a browser password manager that can help make your passwords unique per site and comprised of random characters, users are forced to use passwords from their head, likely sharing them between sites. Someone coming to your unattended computer isn't nearly the threat of you using a simple and short password across every site you visit, including the sites that end up with a stolen passwords database or have a moronic password recovery option.
