Disable managing passwords #110

Closed xsmile closed 7 years ago

Disable the settings 'Manage passwords' (kCredentialsEnableService) and 'Auto Sign-in' (kCredentialsEnableAutosignin) by default at chrome://settings/passwords.

To be honest, it's just the default. Normally Chromium prompts you whenever you want to remember a password for a given site, or just to never prompt again on this site/all sites - most people would just disable this feature in the first prompt and never see it again on that profile anymore. It would be also yet another patch to maintain (and, while small, it would require some minor attention during upgrades). Not sure if it's needed.

@DragoonAethis, I just tried saving a password with the v62 to be sure and it only offers to disable the option for the current site, making it necessary to disable it at the settings page if you don't need it. Disabling it should be a saner setting but it applies mostly for new users who didn't set up a profile yet. I'm fine either way :)

@xsmile It's all about whenever you want to maintain this or not, but I'm cool with any option here too ;)
