   Yes, I just deleted my log of my own sanity check, lol. This is the weirdest chrome bug with passwords I've managed to create in many years.  
   
   The installation parameters I am passing to the remote server are quite simple:
   
   ```
       - name: Install couchdb...
         apt:
           name: couchdb
           update_cache: true
   
       - name: Set couchdb ini file options...
         vars:
           default_password: "{{ lookup('password', '~/pwds/password-for_admin.txt length=32 chars=ascii_letters,digits') }}"
         ini_file:
           ini_file:
           dest: /opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini
           section: "{{ item.section }}"
           option: "{{ item.option }}"
           value: "{{ item.value }}"
           create: false
           backup: "{{ true if index == 0 else false }}"
         loop:
           - { section: 'chttpd', option: 'port', value: '5984' }
           - { section: 'chttpd', option: 'bind_address', value: '127.0.0.1' }
           - { section: 'chttpd', option: 'require_valid_user', value: 'true' }
           - { section: 'admins', option: 'admin', value: '{{ default_password }}' }
         loop_control:
           index_var: index
   
   ```
   Identical to the debconf prompts (because ansible doesn't do debconf).
   
   I switched to Firefox as I was typing up another head scratcher and every problem went away? Then I went and opened the server in chrome on my desktop instead of my laptop and it works fine as well.
   
   /shrug
   
   So for real this time, couchdb works fine, chrome's password saving on (one of my) OS X does not!
