Hey,

On ios7 you cannot delete a saved website without the devices passcode in the safari password-auto fill settings (also need the passcode to view a password for obvious security reasons)
On osx mavericks however I can go to safari settings and than password and delete all my keychain items with the remove/remove all button without a password prompt at all (only need password to view or copy a saved password).
This seems very unusual and I do not understand the benefit as I have already once accidently deleted my keychain as well as the fact that a stranger/thief could also delete it.
Any thoughts? Am I missing some settings?
Thanks for any help and replies
