This is a real annoyance, and bug 453326 only reports the tip of the iceberg for pages requiring login -- you get the same repeated requests for master password if you have multiple login-dependent tabs to open on restart, just as the other users have reported for multiple proxy-dependent tabs. I think I've noticed this ever since 3.0.

I routinely have to type in my master password anywhere from 4 to 8 times to open my saved tabs every morning.

There should be a way for the first triggering of a request for master password to set a flag in the program so that any other triggerings simply wait. That would mean just one master password even if the tabs being loaded included a mix of login pages and proxy pages. Looks like bug 475053 is on the path to fixing this, but make sure that the fix is applied to pages with login fields as well as proxy-dependent pages.
