            Bug ID: 27789
           Summary: Add "newaccount" content attribute to input element
                    (specifically for type=password)
           Product: HTML.next
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: default
          Assignee: dave.null@w3.org

On the theory that strong password generation belongs in the browser, I propose
that site creators be able to flag account-creation input fields, including
passwords, explicitly, to improve tool-assisted security.

So, that the input element (4.10.5) include a new content attribute called
"newaccount", and that this be made applicable to type=password input fields
(4.10.5.1.6)

Thanks.

(@mozilla account, I know, but I'm not part of any relevant working groups and
filing this as an individual.)
