Trigger auto-fill by clicking on login credentials in browser extension window
Coming from Bitwarden I am used to click on the browser extension and then click on one of the stored logins to autofill the form on the current website with it.
This functionality would make a great addition to the proton pass, because:
It covers situations, when the detection of email or passowrd fields is not working correctly (This often fails for me on some websites and then I am unable to autofill the form. It detects fields correctly at first but after loosing focus it does not detect it anymore)
It is more convenient to scroll through the list inside the extension window than in the small autofill popup (When you have a lot of stored login credentials for the same website)
It enables the ability to easily use login credentials that are stored with a different url (Sometimes webservices have different urls where you login with the same credentials. When you are not aware of all of these, you can still search for the credentials in the browser extension and just use them to auto-fill on the current website. Otherwise you would have to edit the login data first and add the new url to be able to use it with auto-fill.)
best regards,

I also would like to have the functionality. Similar to Jacob, I used this in Bitwarden when certain webpage login fields were not compatible with the login form autofill option. Also, not advertising the Proton Pass icon in the login field is good security as well.
