Description

Password fields should use the newer autocomplete="new-password" usage. If current password is required then that input should use "current-password". Just using "off" the browser can and in the case of Chrome will ignore it.

Other core inputs could use better autocomplete as well (e.g. username field have autocomplete="username").

Could be useful to just add a new parameter for all text based (text, password, email, etc..) fieldtypes to set the autocomplete value as well instead of forcing it.
