> up until the point it recognises But that's the point... how? It recognizes that when the user confirms they've finished entering their username by clicking some kind of button. At which point either a password box is shown or the alternative mechanism is shown. There's no way to know in advance. And it's a UX problem if a password box is shown by default, because then users who don't have passwords think there's a bug in accessing the resource (because they don't have a password). If your password manager has a problem with filling in the username, then the problem is with your password manager, not with the login flow. Starting with username-only is an industry standard for any product used in enterprises. |

Focussing on the next field or button.

Hence why I said it can be hidden.

For sure not filling username only is a problem/missing feature with Firefox, I didn't claim otherwise. My main use for this feature is not dealing with what I consider to be bad UX, but logging in to sites that for security I don't want FF remembering my password.

That's the complaint.
