Thanks Stephan, but I don't understand why this appears in the only just
released LO 7.3.3.2 when the bug report suggests that Caolán's patch is
targeted at 7.4.

Additionally, why would a password be required for a new, never
previously saved document/spreadsheet/presentation/drawing?

That's new code, and 
 "Add 
help/info to Master Password refresh infobar" discusses whether it would 
benefit from something like a "Help" button.
