Firefox autofills data in private browsing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Store some login/password data, for example for gmail, using the plugin
2. Start Private Browsing mode in Firefox
3. Type the first letter of the login in the gmail login box

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should not auto-fill anything. Instead, it fills in with my login and offers 
to fill my password too (but asks for my keychain password).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Version 1.0.1, on Mac OS 10.6.4

I'm not certain that what you describe is a bug, but if you believe so, you'll 
need to file an issue with Mozilla.

The password logic is all implemented in the core Mozilla products - this 
add-on simply adds an alternate method of looking up the password when 
requested to do so by the application.

I'm sorry, you're right. I was confused by 
http://support.mozilla.com/en-us/kb/private+browsing 

"Passwords: No passwords will be automatically filled in during the your 
Private Browsing session, and no new passwords will be saved." 

which made me think that this was not default behavior in Firefox without the 
addon (plus I asked someone to check without the addon and he gave me incorrect 
information).
