Bug#558126: epiphany-browser - password form saving is inoperable

Hi,

It seems that epiphany stores password with reference to the page that
is currently visited when the user authenticates and not w.r.t. the main
url. This may explain why it something asks to store passwords again and
again...

Consider for example a wiki, if you authenticate when visiting a subpage
http://wiki.d.o/SomePage epiphany will store credentials for the
following host: http://wiki.d.o/SomePage?form%5Fusername=name&form%
5Fpassword=password

Next time if you authenticate on an other page
http://wiki.d.o/SomeOtherPage, epiphany will store an other entry for
the following host: http://wiki.d.o/SomeOtherPage?form%
5Fusername=name&form%5Fpassword=password


Cheers,

    Denis
