Auto Fill Suggestion for password fields with no user/login field
Background:
Some www sites you stayed logged in for weeks - but the sites may require you to enter the password for special actions for extra security. These prompt is not a login prompt but ask for the same password used at login.
Suggestion:
Proton Pass should suggest to auto fill the password if Proton Pass finds a login/password for the www site.

When creating a new entry in Proton Pass, we should have suggestions about already-used mails and usernames to help us create logins faster.

There are too many websites where Proton Pass autofill either doesn't work or only partially works. When it does work, it's brilliant. But there are dozens of websites I've come across where the username/password is never suggested to autofill, regardless of how the domain is set up in Proton Pass. And similarly, the 2FA rarely pops up for me when it exists, meaning I'm constantly having to pop back into the app/plugin to retrieve my 2FA code.
It would be wonderful if there was an option within Proton Pass to alert your team to instances where these don't function properly and hopefuly expedite them getting fixed.

If Proton Pass fails to identify a login for a given domain or application, after a manual search, it would be beneficial to provide users with the option to directly populate the login form and subsequently save that domain or application association with the entered credentials.

Actually, if the website is protected by htpasswd, Proton does nothing, we have to copy/paste manually the credentials.
What I suggest is:
Proton detects if the current website is protected by htpasswd. If yes, it redirects to the https://userlogin:userpassword@website.com
By redirecting with this was, Proton don't have to try to fill the form because it is impossible to do I guess, but redirecting to login with URL directly is the best option for me

Yes, this is really annoying, as it also applies to logins with two steps, ie. first you enter username, click continue and then you enter the password. Proton Pass doesn't show the password list in that case.
