You are correct! As soon as I submit a search query on sbb.ch, the same problem occurs with that query.

I always concluded that it was the fault of the website creators. Guess I have to switch to Firefox...

I think it might have that behavior because they have the auto-complete tag set to...

<input id="fromField" type="text" inputmode="text" class="mod_textfield_control" placeholder="Von" autocomplete="new-password"...

Though, there is also a lot of other stuff going on in that html element I don't understand.

That's an interesting hack as autocomplete=new-password will generally disable autocomplete.

Though it may not work every time, as browsers & password managers might also suggest new passwords (following whatever their internal generation rules are).
