HTTP Basic Auth autofill should be capable of filling on load (maybe normal logins too?)
At work, we use a site that relies on an HTTP basic authentication dialog. My colleagues and I need to access this site multiple times a day, every day. Having to open 1Password and manually click “Autofill” each time quickly becomes frustrating, especially since there’s an additional login screen and 2FA on top of that.
While I don’t think this should be enabled by default, I do believe the option should at least be available.
More generally, this would be a nice QOA improvement regardless of whether HTTP basic auth is involved. If I’m already on a login page after explicitly clicking a button, I don't get why I should still have to manually select my account.
Just something to think about 🙂

I, too, have a HTTP basic authenticated site which the 1Password extension used to be able to autofill occasionally, but stopped ever autofilling some versions ago.
Opening and filling the site from the extension works perfectly and consistently. I've tagged this site as a favorite, which makes the process a minimal effort for the one site.
