In short: this works when the SERVER returns a page with pre-entered information.

This is common when returning to a form you previously filled, like an address for, but it's very, very rare for this to happen to a password field. Like, why would a server send you a password field with your real password pre-entered?

Every other type of data is fair game... given that the attacker can inject CSS into your pages.
