[Bug 219757] [NEW] Two Password Required dialog boxes are displayed on startup

[Christopher Yee Mon]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

Summary: Set Firefox to save passwords with a master password to access
them. Save passwords in whatever installed extension uses them. Start
Firefox. Presumably because of multiple extensions being loaded and
requiring the master password, two Password Required dialog boxes are
loaded on startup. There should be only one such dialog box being
displayed.

Firefox 2.0.0.13
Kubuntu 7.10

Steps
1. Install a bunch of extensions
2. Set Firefox to save passwords, with a Master Password to access them
3. In whatever extension allows the user to save passwords, save passwords
4. Start Firefox
5. Observe whether the Password Required dialog box is loaded and how many times the dialog box is loaded

Expected Results: The Password Required dialog box should be loaded once

Actual Results: The Password Required dialog box is loaded twice.

In my environment I have the following extensions installed:

Adblock Plus
BuyLater
Download Statusbar
DownloadHelper
DownThemAll!
Fast Video Download
Faviconize Tab
Fission
Flashgot
Forecastfox Enhanced
Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer
GetVideo
Gmail Manager
Google Notebook
Google Reader Notifier
Greasemonkey
I <3 Miro
lget
NoScript (disabled)
Paste and Go 2
Remember the Milk for Gmail
Resizeable Form Fields
Stealther
Stop-or-Reload button
Tiny Menu
ubufox
Ubuntu Forums Menu
User Agent Switcher
Web Developer

Of these, I am certain that the Google Reader Notifier and Gmail Manager
both allow you to save the Gmail login user name and password.
