My general fix for this is to add `autocomplete: discourse` but I don’t think this is correct in this case.

This is actually not exactly the same as this broken chrome behavior: [https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=587466](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=587466)

Somehow, some extension is adding text to `new-account-challenge` after we **explicitly** set it from here: [discourse/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/controllers/create-account.js.es6 at 6de254f64263d7e3cc223404348c03e23c85d904 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/6de254f64263d7e3cc223404348c03e23c85d904/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/controllers/create-account.js.es6#L196-L199)

This is clearly bad browser extension behavior to me. Why is it touching an `INPUT` after it already has text in it?

I am not sure there is anything we can do here short of isolate what browser extension is causing this and raising an issue with the authors of said extension.
