Like clobbering the now auto-saved password on the Login panel, perhaps??
That's now happened to me a few times during development when running under the debugger, which behaves differently from how the product normally operates.
In any case, this is probably one of those items where we'll get a near 50/50 division between users. So I'm honestly not sure how to handle it. Yes, we could add more preferences for users to configure, but that takes time and still requires users for whom things work "wrong" to discover the preference and go configure it. That vast majority won't know the preference exists in the first place and will simply think that the product is "wrong" for their liking. If anyone has a good recommendation for things like this, I'm open to suggestions!
