TB 31.3.0 doesn't even show the Password Manager checkbox to me anymore on in the authentication dialog. What's going on with that?

I am in the "make hardy the best release there ever was"-mood today and have brought myself to really reporting every single bit of problem I have put off for so long so somebody with the needed skills has a chance to fix it. I subscribe to an RSS feed hosted on a password-protected https-site in Thunderbird. TB works fine but periodically asks me for the password although I have marked "save password with password manager" in the dialog. In fact, the necessary fields are displayed filled in, but the pop-up comes back to me from time to time and I have to hit the OK button. I have set up a test installation which is exactly the same as the one I am having problems with at https://clients.leggewie.biz/tester/. The ssl-certificate is from cacert.org, so your browser might throw that up at first. The user you need to get in is tb-tester and the password is launchpad. The RSS feed is at https://clients.leggewie.biz/tester/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rss When you susbscribe to that in TB and save the login credentials, you should have TB nagging you from time to time to with a login screen.
