(Firefox :: about:logins, defect, P3)

Description

[Timea Cernea [:tbabos][inactive]]

Attachment: Recording of 3rd scenario

This is a follow-up from Bug 1587927

1. First simple scenario:

• Have multiple (3-5) about:logins page opened and PINNED
• Restore session enabled
• Master Password set up
• Restart Firefox

Actual result:
A Master Password prompt will be opened (overlapping each other) for each pinned about:logins tab: https://imgur.com/a/yc578Lc

2. Second Scenario:

• Have at least one about:logins tab pinned
• Master Password set up
• Have a facebook tab pinned that has saved credentials (for autocomplete on page load)

Actual result:
Two master password prompts will be opened -> one for about:logins and one for facebook autofill: https://imgur.com/Q8AdIGt

3. The third scenario (involves Sync):

• A combination of the two from above: facebook pinned tab, about:logins and sync enabled.

Actual result:
Besides the opened prompts for the pinned tabs, Firefox Sync may trigger another MP prompt after 10 seconds or so, while the other prompts are still active. Please see the recording.
That white master password prompt is a bonus...reproduced it twice and accidentally jumped into my recording.

Filling in the master password in one modal will not dismiss the other ones
