Post this in the feature requests thread (link at the bottom of the page).
On a side note...you can probably recover the deleted password file from Firefox if it hasn't been too long. If you're on Windows, there's a program called GetDataBack that is very good for recovering deleted files. On Linux/Mac, you'll have to search around for whatever data recovery tool they use.
- jacquesm 17y agoThe feature requests thread is as dead as can be, password recovery is a basic feature that every serious website should have. To have to hunt around in deleted files is no substitute for this.
- tptacek 17y agoHacker News is getting along fine without password recovery, and it's a pretty serious website. It's good to question your assumptions. This came up before, and my understanding is, people just contact Graham and he resets people's passwords.
