Lastly, the more general point of "wouldn't it be helpful if all form

1.3.6 Identify Purpose in general, though note that while for 1.3.5 the
commonly understood technique at this point in time is to use the
autocomplete values defined in HTML, for 1.3.6 there is no universally
agreed-upon (and supported by all user agents/third party apps/etc)
standard way of achieving this.
