In SeaMonkey 2.1 you'll have the built-in Data Manager for that
(currently an extension).

Isn't the forms manager a huge security hole!?
No. the forms manager is supposed (they way it worked in 1.1.9 and lower
and work in Form History manager And Auto Fill Forms is to automatically
fill-in redundant information such as Name address city state zip phone.
etc by copping what you fill out the first time to a Database . then
when you run across the same item to fill in double click in the blank
and its filled or click and hold, and a pop up window appears and choose
desired info.
User names and Passwords are not supposed to be affected that's a
completely different database. User names and Passwords are saved for
non secure sites if you choose to do so when a pop up item asked whether
you wish to save username and password. IN SM 1 you could do so in
secure sites.That has been changed due to pressure from Financial
institutions.
But if the credit card is stored in a "field" in the clear, what's to
prevent
a day zero virus from finding it? Forget passwords - this prima data.
Neither form History Manager nor AutoFill Forms has credit card numbers
set up. you can't remember CC numbers or even t cvc numbers.
It would not matter if they did or did not: the website designer can still
use form fields for whatever. It is the fault of the website creator to
use insecure methods.
It is not the fault of SM "forms" if a field called "cc"
is used to store a credit card number. At any rate, I was suspicious and
FOUND MY credit card in a form by using the forms manager!
So, bad websites are a security hole, NOT forms manager ( I misspoke above).
