Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 220214

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

If you have a website to which you have a saved username and password, you can't
say no to the master password.  I go to a web page in a newly opened browser. 
Master password has not been entered.  I go to the site, it asks me if I want to
use my saved password.  I click cancel twice (there's a bug on that one), and it
goes away.  I start typing in the username box, and after each character I am
asked again to enter my master password.  This is quite annoying.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to site with stored username and password.
2. Choose not to enter the master password.
3. Type a letter in the username box.
Actual Results:  
You are asked for the master password after every character.

Expected Results:  
You should be left alone to type your username in peace.

This is a regression from bug 220214. I already reopened that. -> duplicate of that.
