User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:87.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/87.0

Steps to reproduce:

Every time I try to log in to Bugzilla (usually after opening a link from an email received from the service) and subsequently attempt to log in I have to search for the proper entry in KeePass2 by hand because the small window pop-up for entering user id and password is shown without any change to the URL or window title. As Keepass2 (and other password managers) uses these two data values to select the correct password entry, it is impossible to configure KeePass2 to automatically providing a password.

Expected results:

Clicking on the "Log In" button should lead to such a change of the combined value of the current URL and window title that it would be unique and not used in any other situation. Then this combined value could be used for the configuration of the password manager.
