When signing into websites with a username/password, firefox often offers to save the username/password for me.

This is not happening with the orion login dialog.

Apparently triggering the Password Manager prompt requires
- a real <form>
- submitting the <form> via the form action, not xhr

Simon, are you planning to work on this bug? It's very old, but still valid. I could try to do something about it in the next release.
