Reporter, 

what build of Mozilla were you using and do you have URL where this can be 
tested?  This bug will get a lot more attention (some rather than none, that 
is) if you include a URL.

If you own site/code where this problem occurred, maybe you can put up a dummy 
form pointing to a protected area and provide the username and password to get 
into that area.
