5.2: autosave passwords in site preferences

[Peter Nicholson]

Thank you both for your suggestions,

As far as I can tell, I must have had a corrupted keychain. I had no 
keychain password item for the site (honest) and Keychain First Aid 
said it didn't find errors, but deleting that keychain entirely and 
restarting found OW asking me for passwords when it should and storing 
them correctly. One thing I did notice is that Safari has a 
mini-keychain viewer available under their Autofill prefs; it's not 
very functional, but it was a handy way of checking to see what 
keychain passwords are being used by the browser.

I did check there; those checkboxes are just site-specific 
autofill/autocomplete preferences for saving other form fields 
(addresses, phone numbers, etc).
