Details

Environment:

FF 37.0b5
Build Id: 20150312193711
OS: Win 7 x64, Mac Os 10.7.5

STR:

1. Login to a Firefox Account.
2. Change the password from https://accounts.firefox.com/change_password
3. Sync after changing the password( the sync is successful)
4. Restart Firefox.
5. Sync again. (you are asked to login again due to a password change)


Issue:
After changing the password you are still allowed to sync without being asked for the new password, however after restarting Firefox you are asked to re login due to password change, even if the change was from the same device.

Note:
I think there should be consistency or there should be an login prompt after the password change or the password is saved on the device where the change occurs.
