For form data, is there a way to not show the content (username/pw) until the first or 2 characters are typed? I don't like it when just clicking shows it all!!
I've saved Username and password for many sites, and when I visit such sites, I can just click on the username field and it automatically lets me click and user the username and password. I thought that was not so private especially if someone happen to just be near my laptop. Could you include a security/privacy feature wherein one has to type the first or two initial characters in the username before Firefox lets you see or click on the credentials? Thank you.

Note that there is a signon.autofillForms pref to prevent Firefox from filling the name automatically.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

it didn't solve the issue when I changed the boolean to false.
Hi, perhaps instead of using the Password Manager - Password Manager - Remember, delete and edit logins and passwords in Firefox, you could use the Auto Form Fill - Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms, which will only remember your user name and not password.

That didn't do it either. I think that's something that needs to be updated with Firefox or someone needs to come up with extension. thank all
A custom style rule in userChrome.css can target #PopupAutoComplete, the listbox which is overlaid immediately below the control. But the way it attaches to the page there is no direct relationship to the form control it belongs with that would allow showing/hiding it based on pure CSS. So I agree an extension (or a change to Firefox, but those can take a long time) is required.
You can propose a new add-on here and see if anyone takes up the challenge: https://discourse.mozilla-community.org/c/add-ons
Thank you, I created a thread in the link you provided for new extension.
