Master Password Window & the password

[abbaqa]

Hi!
The Password window should not pop up until unless the user clicks over the password tab ( should be provided in the upper right corner of the firefox browser ) or any credentials page is browsed.
The auto pop up of the Master password Window is a great hurdle because the user has to cancel it each time he/she open up the browser.
firefox saves the passwords but not the user names very often.
some times it changes and some times it does not changes the credentials if the credentials r changed on the website.
i highlighted few of the above issues b4 but nobody accepted it, so i moved to another browser ,even i was using it for so long, today u invited me on your forum due to the birthday of a firefox, so i m again putting tjhe suggestions along with few ideas cuz if its fixed, i ld love to use firefox again. thx

I agree with this suggestion. The master password dialog is one of the most horribly intrusive things in Firefox at the moment - the maxim of "get out of the users way" is highly pertinent here.

It shouldn't be mandatory as I don't need to unblock my passwords upon every launch of the browser - cookie sessions exist for a reason and many of my webapps will not ask me for a password for an extended period of time after an initial login so I don't need to be forced to enter a password at every launch of the browser.

When its triggered, it blocks everything else from happening until a password is entered or it's cancelled. Cancelling it just pauses its reappearance until a browser event retriggers its appearance, such as a login page, but not only. Sometimes it just randomly appears maybe because some js reloads a page (and it needs to be cancelled). It ridiculously appears upon a logout because logout pages often present an empty username / password dialog.

I suggest that upon Firefox launch that its not automatically triggered, maybe the first login page that requires login entry can make it softly appear but only in the login elements - note that not everyone that goes to a login page necessarily needs to actualyl login to it (their could be a status page there, they could consult the bottom banner links, they could go to login and ultimately decide not to - hence no need to force a master password entry down their throats).
