I can understand this comment. Any smart person will keep their personal
data encrypted with a master password. If you do this, and if you don't
use Mozilla mail, Mozilla won't prompt for your master password until
the first time you go to a page with a stored password for it.

So far so good, but then you get sites like mozillaZine which include a
form with the password field on every "view comments" page. Which means
that the first time in a browsing session that you visit a mozillaZine
comments page, you get asked for a password. Never mind that you were
trying to *read* the comments, and had no intention of posting one.

I'm not sure what I think Mozilla should *do* about this - I've always
just chalked it up as the cost of having a secure password. Perhaps an
option to always prompt for the password when you first start mozilla?
