Yes, first is checked, second is not -- all looks good.

I observed this logging into FastMail, and at the time checked the FF
settings and confirmed that saving passwords was enabled. I now can't
reproduce this -- I've re-extracted the TBB from the original
distribution, checked that saving password is _off_, and verified that
it _doesn't_ offer to save passwords. I'll just assume that _I_ did
something wrong unless I can reproduce it ;-)
