Exclude URL Regex Matches from Form Autofill

Exclude URL Regex Matches from Form Autofill

For browser extensions, there should be an option to exclude URLs from form autofill functionality by adding a list of Regex strings at the site level and also globally.

For sites that manage multiple user accounts, it is easy for passwords and emails to be swapped out unknowingly while updating other account properties.

A good example of this is the WordPress admin where users with admin privileges may be editing the details of other user accounts. It would be easy for someone to miss the email and especially password fields being overwritten as the password field is lower on the admin page.

Having a global regex rule that matches URLs containing “/wp-admin/user-edit.php” would avoid the issue across all WordPress sites.
