Go to a website - log in with secure details 2. Ummmmm well I don't think so at the moment, but I might like to.... 3. Aghhhhh I don't want to "Never remember" or "ALWAYS REMEMBER" I want inbetween. Actual Results: I get angry, and you don't want to see me when I'm angry Expected Results: I can't opt out and come back to ask a Firefox to remember a password if circumstances chnage - the software should have a option to "Not this time" - so I get a choice if I come back to a site
While its not made real clear to the 'end user', if you just continue to surf without clicking either button, the Password Prompt bar will go away, and nothing changes. Visiting the site later, will prompt you again, where if you change your mind you can save it then.
You can just ignore the notification bar, it is non-modal precisely because you don't have to do anything with it. Or you can click the close button on it. Either way the next time you visit the site it will ask you again.

it just reassures me that I can click on an conscious choice - but hey it's new and that's what feedback is for :)
Come on, you have a red cross to close the bar, do you want a tooltip with "clicking this button will close the bar with no action"?
