How to view ALL autocomplete entries at once? Where is the storage?

[Brian Cooper]

Ok, when I have a certain entry field on a web page all existing auto-complete
values FOR THIS field are shown in the kind-of-drop-down.

But is there a way to view ALL current auto-compete values for all possible entry fields
at once?

Where is the storage of all these auto-complete values?

In registry? Where exactly?

It may be encrypted, but clearly the decryption key is available to
the application without further user input. So it should be possible
for anyone to find it.

if it is that easy for anyone to find it, we do have a security hole for
gleaning important information, account info etc

Of course there is a security hole. That is why you can turn the
feature off when you value your security.
