1. Open Firefox using a clean profile.
2. Click on one of the available Sync buttons (e.g. about:home, about:preferences#sync, menu panel, Tools).
3. Select “Sign in” and click the "Forget password?" link.
4. Enter your email address and wait for the 'Reset password........' email. Click on the link received in the email.
5. Focus the first text field (New Password) and enter some data.
6. Focus the second field and enter some data.
7. Click outside the text fields, anywhere else on the page.
8. Select “Show” for the New Password field.

Expected Result:
The text entered in the “New Password” field is revealed.

Actual Result:
On first click, the text field is focused/selected and only on the second click the "Show" button reacts (you have to click twice in order to reveal the text).

Notes:
This issue also reproduces on Windows 7 64-bit, Windows 7 32-bit and Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit.
This is not a recent regression.

It's not clear whether this is intended behaviour or not; adding :rfeeley to triage from UX perspective.

Not reproducible by me on a Mac, but a believable bug on Windows. Move to GitHub?

This was fixed and `complete_reset_password` page will show both passwords on that page when "Show" is pressed.
