Research direction
The issue requests a 'Don't save' option when entering a password in Mumble. Currently, the password saving behavior is likely handled in the client's UI and storage layer. To implement this, one should explore the password input dialog (likely in src/mumble/MainWindow.cpp or similar) and the credential storage (e.g., src/mumble/Password.h). Review comments in the issue (#1087) for any prior discussion or design suggestions. The maintainer may have provided guidance on expected behavior.
