Password saving shortcut?

Post by thenightfly42 »

When I enter a password, the dialog box regarding saved passwords has the shortcuts:
Alt-Y for Yes
Alt-N for No
but nothing for Never, as far as I can tell. Perhaps Alt-V would work?

Tabbing to that button and then press Space will work.

it is a good point though. it might be nice to have a shortcut key for it. tab and space aren't conveniently near one another, whereas alt + v are

I cleared out my Profile the other day, so I'm reauthorizing (or not) all of my passwords today, and I had an additional thought.

Who uses "No" when asked to save a password? I'm guessing that button only gets about 5% of the use of the other two buttons ("Yes" and "Never"). Never could really use a shortcut label; in the meantime, Tab followed by Space is working fine.

Or maybe Satchel will change everything, and this discussion is moot.
