Firefox 9.0 Nightly build from Sep. 11th, 2011.

If you have a master password set, and a password for a site stored, which requires HTTP-Auth access there is a problem with reloading the page if the first load has been stopped by canceling the password prompts. 

Steps:
1. Setup a master password for your profile
2. Open the given URL and save the password
3. Restart your browser
4. Reload the URL and cancel both the master password and HTTP-Auth prompts
5. Try to reload the page

With step 5 there is nothing happening. There is no way to reload the specific web page. We have to re-display the master password prompt, so the HTTP-Auth prompt can be filled in.
Can you attach any errors logs that are firing during this operation?  sounds like a focus issue.
There are no errors AFAIR. We simply don't trigger a reload, and it's not related to a focus issue.
