Html: Add autocomplete="confirm-password" to <input type="password">

Created on 5 Mar 2018  路  1Comment  路  Source: whatwg/html

When creating new accounts or changing passwords, most sites ask for the new password to be entered twice, to ensure against inadvertent typos. It seems that in addition to current-password and new-password, perhaps there should be a confirm-password value to support ensuring that any password managers or other tools can understand the two password fields properly.

The intent is just to use new-password twice.

Closing since this doesn't appear to be a bug in the spec, but happy to continue discussing in the closed thread.
