Primefaces editable p:selectOneMenu chrome autofill problem

I am trying to cancel chrome autofilling on my inputs using autocomplete="off". I have a case of a <p:selectOneMenu> which have the attribute editable=true. Then, when I focus on the field, chrome autocomplete propose some past texts. How can I cancel this autofilling knowing that the attribute autocomplete is not available for <p:selectOneMenu>?

I have already tried to manage it through javascript, but the onfocus attribute concern dropdown click and not input area focus.

Unfortunately this is not PrimeFaces related. It is that Chrome AutoFill has been a mess over the years.

Here is the thread you want and look at how many times its been updated or answers changed just in the last 3 years.

Disabling Chrome Autofill

Basically Google has gone back and forth about allowing the developer to control what gets autofilled or not and for a while they completely ignore autocomplete="off" saying developers shouldn't decide what a user wants. Then they added some new auto-complete flags. Its a 100% mess in my opinion.
