## Description

When password managers like Bitwarden auto-fill credentials on HTTP pages, Firefox shows an "This connection is not secure" warning popup over the password field. This warning often covers the login button, causing you to accidentally open a help page instead of logging in.

This extension detects when a password field receives focus from auto-fill (rather than a user click) and moves focus to the form's submit button. This dismisses the warning and lets you press Enter to log in immediately.

Features:
- Works automatically on all HTTP pages by default
- Distinguishes between auto-fill focus and manual user interaction
- Optional whitelist mode to restrict to specific sites
- Wildcard pattern matching for site URLs
