Besides issues like requiring javascript or something, its usually not a useful step. The hash of the password can be stolen just as easily as the password itself. You've just made a new password. If you salt the password with the url, all you've done is made a unique password per website which is what you were supposed to be doing anyway. |

The browser doesn't need javascript to see the contents of a password field, or to show an indicator in the browser's chrome. It's the browser.

Note that browsers can already store password lists (ex: Chrome settings, search manage passwords). There would just be an extra step to compare those passwords together.
