Can you provide for Master Password to be entered only once per day for already remembered sites?

When first logging on to a site, I'm prompted for the master password. That's fine. But when I want to log in to an already remembered site, I want to be able to enter the master password only once in a given time period, say 12 hours. Then I won't have to enter the master password for every remembered site I open. I previously used Roboform and it had this feature, which was nice. Or it could be 12 hours or when I leave Firefox, whichever is first.

To solve your problem, use the password manager that worked for you. To add this feature, I can't do anything about that (I don't work at Mozilla).
