Comment 28 for bug 610915

Please back out the fix for bug 447788 !!!

On some sites I have user accounts that differ only by the first character case ("Mylogin"/"mylogin"). Both are stored in the password manager (using older versions of Firefox). Now when I try to login using "mylogin" Firefox always *replaces* my input by "Mylogin" and puts wrong password in the password field.

When a user "accidently saved login with incorrect case" (bug 447788) he can fix it very easily by removing the entry in the password manager. However with the current "fix" to bug 447788, it is not possible to use the password manager at all in a situation with multiple logins that differ only in case. The only option is to remove both entries and use some external password manager.

The current behavior is far worse because it can't be corrected by user, unlike the situation described in bug 447788.
