1Password ignoring vault selection
 If I have All Vaults selected when I go to login to a site I get suggestions from all my vaults as expected.  
 When I change the vault selection to my work vault for instance I still get suggestion...

I can definitely understand your use case and the logic behind it. While I forward this feedback, I think it is important to address a few key points here.
....and I think most users would understand if they change their vault to “work” for instance they would just see their work logins.
That is not what experience has taught us :)
People will click on things and forget that they did, or simply not understand what they're clicking on, resulting in unwanted behavior. That's the world of software. It is our job to make sure that users will be able to log into their websites in every scenario, unless they specifically performed outstanding steps to prevent it. The vault picker in the extension's window is too accessible to have such definitive control but we'll definitely discuss this internally if more users ask for this to happen. 
...maybe at the bottom of the drop down you can just add a line saying “only showing logins from “home” vault” to make it crystal clear?
That's a solid suggestion. Thank you for bringing that up!
For now, if you're looking for ways to improve/enhance your workflow, may I suggest you separate your browser's environment to two different profiles? 
A work profile and a personal profile will allow you to have complete separate environments (each with their own favorites, cache, extensions and settings), which will also allow you to set up 1Password differently on each one of them, and switching between profiles is much quicker and smoother than going into the extension's settings to turn vaults on/off. 
Just a thought and a suggestion that I hope you'll find helpful. 
Thank you again for bringing this up and sharing your thoughts and experience with the extension. Do feel free to share any other pain points or feedback with us here :+1:
