Enhanced "autocomplete=off" enforcement for password field in user edit

[Ozh]

Even with autocomplete=off, the first password field of the user edit form can be pre-populated with current password

Simply adding $('#pass1').val('') makes sure it's really "autocomplete=off"

[Ozh]

Password can still be pre-filled

Hmm that is a squirrely fix :-)

What browsers is this an issue in?

It happens to me in FF3.0.4. It is also putting my username in the Jabber/GoogleTalk field. I have to clear both fields before saving my profile.

Westi: also using FF 3.0.4 Win. The thing is: no matter what OS/browser, the .val('') bit is totally harmless. I just find it a waste that I have to run a little plugin just for this:)

(In [10046]) Fight back against browser autocomplete some more. Fixes #8462 props Ozh.

That's nice, but it won't work in many cases, as jQuery(document).ready() would run before the browser has auto-filled the values (as it runs on "domready"). Some similar js is at the bottom of wp-login.php and it has 200ms delay.
