Password Manager - Save, Never and Ignore?
As a part of my work, I have to access the same sites with a variety of accounts. Sometimes it's appropriate to have Opera remember these passwords, and sometimes it is not.I feel when the password top-bar appears, I need to respond it--I have trouble ignoring it. If I don't want to remember a password, I instinctively click "Never", as the only prominent alternative to clicking "Save". But I don't want to not remember anymore password. I just didn't want to remember this one. I know I can click the X instead, but the X is not displayed like an option and is easy to overlook.
I think it would be helpful if Opera instead displayed three buttons, Save, Never and Ignore, where Ignore would be the same as clicking X.
The current design tricks me into selecting an option I didn't really want to select.
Does the 'save password' bar need an 'Ignore' option

Of course, I really don't mind either way, but I do know on Mac OS X it's a little hard having the X on the complete opposite side.

I'm assuming that this means that you don't want to remember account A on some site, while still remembering account B. If you only have one login for a site that you don't want it to remember, you can click the "Remember choice only for this site" button.

More specifically, I have account A that I have saved, today I log in with B and don't want it saved. But tomorrow I may have C which I do want remembered and I may or may not choose to save every different account thereafter.
If you only have one login for a site that you don't want it to remember, you can click the "Remember choice only for this site" button.
You mean "Remember choice for this page only"? Isn't that option for remembering login preferences for different pages on the same site?

You are right about that. I forgot how it doesn't work for an entire domain, like Google and there plenty of different login areas.
On another note, I just logged into a site today on 10.5 and looked for the "Now now" button, since I've been using Linux 10.10. Took me a second to remember the X, so I'm definitely +1 for adding some Not now/ignore button. Especially with the Mac where the X is completely opposite side of screen, and that's a lot of space on a wide screen to cover.
