Quick Access on Mac's smart app-detection actually makes things worse
Hey 1Password-Team,
Although I'm still not super excited about jumping to an electron app, I finally decided to at least give 1Password 8 a fair chance and really enjoy some of the new features so...

Hey 1P_Ben,
I didn't even notice that Quick Access always brings up credentials for whichever window is in the foreground first as I rarely need any logins within apps where I'm already logged in, but as you mentioned it I did some testing with several different apps in the foreground and you're right: It works very consistently! That's great to know and definitely makes my first suggestion for improvement nothing more than a question of aesthetics rather than usability.
Still wanna maintain that there should be an option for Quick Access to show me my favorites first whenever any web browser is the foreground app. Another inconvenience I've noticed today is that the 'Open & Fill' command in Quick Access always opens a tab in Safari (maybe because it's my default browser?) even if another web browser with the 1Password extension installed is in the foreground. It'd be nice to see an option there to always let 'Open & Fill' resort to the web browser that's currently in the foreground but resort to your default browser whenever the currently active app is any other application. Should be optional though as I can also see how someone would deliberately use Quick Access to bring their default browser to the foreground and automatically log into a website at the same time.
