QA/Password manager login metadata

Summary

Context

The Login Manager has been recording various metadata for a while, but this data was not made visible in the UI. Given the recent Heartbleed attack, it has been decided that specific metadata fields will be unhidden by default and displayed in the Password Manager's UI, with an option to unhide a couple of other similar fields.

The following metadata fields were introduced in the Password Manager's UI:

• First Used - hidden by default
• Last Used - visible by default
• Last Changed - visible by default
• Times Used - hidden by default

Other fields that are visible by default in the Password Manager:

• Site
• Username

Where

The Password Manager can be accessed by following either:

Menu Panel > Options > Security > "Saved Passwords..."

or

about:preferences page > Security > "Saved Passwords..."
