Description elendur 2003-07-21 01:03:42 UTC 
There really needs to be an option in the preferences to not store
passwords or form information from any web sites.  Having to say "never for
this site" at every web site with passwords is a huge inconvenience for the
user who doesn't want to store passwords.
Comment 1 Jon Willeke 2003-08-13 05:56:16 UTC 
I'd really like to see this added for 1.0.  Put a preference on the
Privacy tab and a "don't ask again" checkbox on the dialog.  If the
Privacy tab seems too busy, perhaps you can move the Temporary Files
preferences to the General tab.  I've cleared the cache when it was
corrupted, but never for privacy reasons.

I'm not sure which about:config option disables the PDM.  Does
Epiphany honor it?

I think we need this for lockdown mode too.
Comment 3 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2003-12-14 10:49:52 UTC 
I'm not sure what exactly we need for lock down here. What sort of
data we want to not store ? I guess a pref that disable all data would
be easier to use though it overlap with prefs like disable cookies ...

Target 1.2 -> 1.4 due to feature freeze.
Comment 5 Christian Persch 2004-07-25 13:26:23 UTC 
Mass-moving Target 1.4 -> 1.6 because of feature and UI freeze. Sorry for the
bugspam, search for "mass-move-1.4-1.6" to filter all of it.
