When creating or editing a Virtual IP (Firewall -> Virtual IP -> Settings) the Gateway and Virtual IP Password boxes are seen as the firewall user/password boxes respectively, and the password manager (via FF66 and earlier) auto-completes them. Could this be changed so that doesn't happen?
Should the VHID password even be treated as something that needs hiding? I'm guessing that if it's not called/defined as "password" that it won't be seen as one.

I think, the problem is your password manager. Set an exception or use another one. KeePass is pretty cool and can be bound to URLs.
@Devs: Don't mess up with forms, because of third party apps/requests like this. There maybe people that use password mangers to fill in VHID passwords automatically and mods would break that.

You have a password manager that differentiates between the password on a page v. a password on a site? I don't think mine can do that.
For interest, why would you need to store the VHID password at all - if it's available in plain text in the UI, like the IPSEC PSK, can't you just cut and paste between the firewalls?

You really should exclude saving of passwords on any firewall UI, then this also wouldn't happen

That option works better when you don't administrate a lot of firewalls. Unique password per install is a lot of passwords to remember.
