Form Fields Autofilling Despite autocomplete="nofill" or autocomplete="off" ( Autocomplete is needed for some fields but not for others, so it cannot be controlled at the settings level)

Hello Firefox Support Team,

I’m experiencing an issue where Firefox is autofilling form fields even when the autocomplete attribute is explicitly set to values like "off" or "nofill".

<form>

   <label for="username">Username:</label>
   <input type="text" id="username" name="username" autocomplete="nofill">
   
   <label for="password">Password:</label>
   <input type="password" id="password" name="password" autocomplete="off">

</form>

Despite trying several variations, Firefox continues to autofill these fields.

Could you clarify:

Is this expected behavior in Firefox? Are there specific guidelines or workarounds to prevent autofill in cases where it is not desired? Are there any browser settings or configurations that could override the autocomplete attribute? - Autocomplete is needed for some fields but not for others, so it cannot be controlled at the settings level Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
