Hey Siefkenj,
I tried reproducing this issue with https://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Basic/ but I'm not sure this is helpful for me since it's a test site. Can you please provide a site where I can better check this issue?
I am able to reproduce the issue with https://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Basic/ First, go to https://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Basic/ and don't type in credentials. Then, open another window and go to https://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Basic/ . There is no credentials prompt and the "loading" icon just says a page is loading, though it never loads.
In case it is relevant, I am running Firefox 85 on Linux.

Still cannot repro it as the prompt appears in both windows and is functional.
Setting a component for this issue in order to get the dev team involved.
If you feel it's an incorrect one please feel free to change it to a more appropriate one.

I can't open the second browser on 78.8esr.
And I can reproduce the issue on 85, 86, but not on 87 windows10.
