No Credit card form-fill with 5.0.1? Pathetic.

On previous Firefox versions, no prob - auto fill was there. Not now. There isn't even one basic auto-fill Add On for credit card info - loads of auto-fill Add Ons, but none for CREDIT CARDS.

5.0.1's very own Form History gobbledegook, the famed Autofill Forms, and Autofill (I don't want to spend time trying to figure out field name, value to autofill, site filter... and all the other stuff) Don't the developers of these Add Ons use credit cards? deleted.

A SIMPLE auto form-filling Add On that fills the spaces left for credit card info... is it too much to ask?

Starting with Firefox 4.0, credit card numbers aren't saved in "form history" any longer. Most of the "auto fill" add-ons used "form history" to recall data, while a few others stored that information in the prefs.js file. I'm not sure why an add-on that used pref.js wasn't updated for Firefox 4+ versions. Sorry, I looked at the "form fill" and "auto fill" add-ons that I know about and none look like they save credit card numbers and are Firefox 4+ compatible.

I stumbled upon LastPass while browsing the Android Market, and they also have a Firefox Add On. It's a password manager and form-filler with card nfo... Just what I needed.

It's very professional as well.
