Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0 Build ID: 20151221130713 Steps to reproduce: I start my PC (no matter what OS). TB and FF in Autostart. Using masterpasswords in FF and TB. FF startpage using http-auth. Configured RSS feeds in TB are using http-auth, too. Actual results: Various password dialogues come up, all centered and overlapping. Not able to distict which dialogue is waiting for what kind of credentials from which program - all look simmilar :(. Sometimes master-password request from FF is overlapped by http-auth request and FF crash, if I enter http-auth credentials first. Already tried StartUpMaster addon, but it doesn't fix the issues in total. Expected results: I am happy that several password dialogues come up, but those should be explicitly named e.g. "FF (http-auth for http://foo.bar)". Password dialogue boxes should *never* overlap other password dialogue boxes.
