master password

When starting Firefox, the browser always asks me to enter the master password. This is not user friendly, because in most of time, users just use the blank page at start up and want to Google for some information.

The current design has two problem: 1. when I was typing the contents for searching, the master password would take away the privilege of keyboard. Then what I typed was captured in the wrong place. 2. Firefox might be becoming slower when starting up. (about 3~5 seconds to show the password dialog.)

Recommendation: Jump out the master password dialog when the user first needs the password in a website. If the user don't need to enter the password, there is no reason to show the dialog.

Thank you very much.
