Group search is being detected as a password field (Firefox)

It might be interpreting the placeholder="username" attribute as a sign that it is a possible login field?

I am able to replicate on Firefox and Safari. I also have a browser extension on firefox for apple cloud passwords, and it is marking it as a login field as well (though that might just be latching onto Firefox’s own read of the page).

Maybe placeholder needs to be updated to something like “filter username”?
