Did you test your assertion?

Go to amazon right now and try to change your password without having to enter your password first.



My browser fills in that password for me. My guess is that would be the same for most people.


Your browser fills in the "current password" when you try to change your password on amazon.com? How'd you manage that? I have my password saved for amazon, and I don't have to type it to log in, but it doesn't get filled in automatically on the "change password" form (because that'd be stupid).
