Dear Camino: why can't you tell the difference between the basic auth 
that this page hides behind and the login details that it also uses? 
Why do you keep overwriting one with the other?

Safari can tell the difference, you know. One's basic auth, the 
other's a website password, in a form. Work it out.

While we're at it, why can't either of you remember more than one 
website password per site? Admittedly website development leads to 
some edge cases (most people probably don't have three different 
Yahoo! webmail accounts), but I do want to be able to log in as me, 
and as other people too. IE for Windows seems to manage. Some would 
say it's about the only thing it does right, but it manages.

Grargh.
