IMHO, the master password should not be requested before it is *really*
needed, but SM2 understanding of "when it is needed" baffles me: just
launched the browser in SM2 should not meet that criteria, until you
want to get into a site that requires a password.
Am I oversimplifying things?
I have SM set-up to open in the Mail & Newsgroup page....and the first
thing it then goes and does is get my mail, which requires my mail
account password.....which would require my entering my master password,
if I used one.
So I'm guessing all those who open into just the Mail & Newsgroup screen
or into the Browser Screen AND the Mail & Newsgroup screens would have
the same situation.
Not sure about a "Browser Only" set-up!

It does make sense to be asked for the master password if you launch the
Mail UI first. Not my case.
Personally, I only launch the Browser interface and open only later the
Mail UI when I need it.
"Ask for Master on first requirement only" got broken somehow back in
the 1.1.x series (sometime between 1.1.16 and 1.1.17, I think...I'm not
sure exactly when). I launch SM with Browser only, and I have SM Mail
set up not to look for new messages unless I do it manually - that's the
way I've been set up for a few years, and it used to work like the
dialog said...but now...
I don't get the request for my Master on startup or on opening SM Mail,
but I do get it at seemingly random times. Both with 1.1.19 and
2.0.4...most frustrating is when I'm in the middle of a download - SM
just freezes and I can't enter anything...I have to Force Quit SM and
relaunch.
