Numbers password bug

I appear to have found a password bug.


1. Set a password

2. Toggle "Remember this Password" to "On".

3. Change passwords one or more times to something different.

4. Now change your password back to the original one. Numbers still remembers that original password


What this means is if you accidentally hit the "Remember This Password" toggle, you can never lock the spreadsheet on that iOS device again with it.

I've noticed this problem with pages. I accidentally selected the 'remember password' option and found that my document was not then secure on my iphone. I thought that by changing passwords and then changing back would solve the problem but the original password was still remembered. I can't find where that password is stored (thought it may have been with my safari keychain passwords but it isn't). Now have to have a different password for that document as the original is 'forever remembered!'
