Opening a new window with multiple tabs, if the first tab requires a password then all other tabs wait for the password. Only the first should wait.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Tools > Options... > General > home page to have multiple tabs, such that the first tab requires a password. 

2. Re-open Firefox, or File > New Window. 
Actual Results:  
The password dialog box takes focus, and prevents the other tabs loading in the background. Nothing loads until the password is entered (or confirmed). 


Expected Results:  
Whilst the password-protected tab isn't loading, the other tabs should load.
