Safari shows saved usernames while 1Password is locked

In Safari, when I click a login box, my available usernames are shown even though 1password is locked. Only after I click one does it ask me to unlock 1password. So the password is protected, but the usernames are exposed.

Obviously fine most of the time, but some people on some websites might not want all their secret aliases to pop up when a guest is borrowing their computer! In fact, on some sites it could be a problem to just reveal the fact that I have an account at all. 

Have I got a setting wrong somewhere?

Hi ​@grb26 thanks for reaching out!

 

To help me better understand the situation, I'd like to ask you to take a screenshot of the usernames you're seeing when 1Password is locked and attach it to your reply:

Let me know if you have any questions.

For what it’s worth, the new universal sign-in overlay doesn’t appear when 1P is locked.

This is what I see when I click in the Email box:

 

And if I click “Other passwords...” it shows the other logins I have on this domain:
