Looks like Mozilla is now interested:

Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2014-04-07 18:21:07 UTC
Strawman proposal: http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/RequestAutocomplete

(Need to test what Chrome implements too.)
Comment 3 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2014-04-07 23:48:10 UTC
Anyone got a demo page that doesn't use minified JS or external JS libraries? I couldn't get Chrome to do anything but return 'disabled' (when served over HTTP) or 'cancel' (when served over HTTPS).
Comment 4 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2014-04-09 21:08:49 UTC
One change to the wiki page we should consider is firing 'unsupported' instead of 'disabled' for the case of the browser not supporting the specific set of fields.
