You can add [aria-haspopup] to your hints.selectors setting (from a config.py, see the configuration docs) to get the same effect.

How to save passwords in browser
There is a Qutebrowser user script for 1password: https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/master/misc/userscripts/qute-1pass.

How about having an progress bar at the echo area???

Web Environment Integrity API
I am not a hopeful romantic, but the EU has been investing on vendor neutral web-browsers like Nyxt [0] and the UR Browser [1] through the Horizon Europe program. I doubt that legislators (at least in the EU) will view this as a positive development, assuming EU legislators know what they are doing. On the other hand, lobbying by big tech is still very much a threat.
