Comment:
This is the behavior of the browser (some would even argue expected).
Django would need to rename those fields in order for this autofill
feature not to kick in. I don't think that renaming the fields is a good
idea, because it would mean unexpected field names in the admin.
It is the browser providing those credentials. You can file a bug with
Mozilla or Debian, but I would guess they would state that it is expected.
The field's name is `password`, if you store your `password` in the
browser, when another field on the site is named password, it autofills
it.
