The password manager appears to just be capable of saving one password per site. Having more than one Gmail account, I was wondering if there is a way to save multiple passwords [and usernames too] for that site.

Any suggestions would be welcomed!

If this is not currently possible, could this be put forward as a feature for a future versions?

The Mozilla will be able to save multiple passwords for multiple accounts. For example:

Account 1 Password 1

Account 2 Password 2

However, it will not be able to do this: Account 1 Password 1 Password 2.

If the button to save a password doesnt show up, its possible that you might of pressed "Never remember the password for this site" button. If you would like Firefox to ask you to save usernames and passwords for this site, you'll need to remove it from the exceptions list using the [[Security and passwords settings.|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/security-and-passwords-settings]]

If you enter a new name that hasn't been stored yet in the Password Manager then Firefox will show the key icon on the location/address bar and offer to store the new name and password.

Note that Firefox won't store a new name/password when you are in private browsing mode (never remember history).
