Kappy, "ignore it and enter your own password" is not an option when you are using your own third-party password manager. When I'm trying to use 1Password (or Last Pass), and I'm trying to fill the password of my choosing, Safari butts in with it's suggestion and stops the process. It's clumsy, oafish, and presumptuous. I don't mind having Safari store my passwords in Keychain, and in fact, I want it to do so.


But I don't want Safari to make password suggestions, and it would be nice to be able to suppress this feature.
