Comment 512 for bug 195698

I have done some testing with firefox 3.6b5 and this bug is not fixed.
Which surprises me as the proxy auth bug which is similar IS fixed.
Now here is a race condition. If you have mutitple tabs with password forms and an authenticating proxy it depends what comes first.
If the proxy kicks in first, you get a single master password prompt and no prompt at all for the forms in the tabs.
If the proxy is late, then you get a master password for each tab and one for the proxy.

What I don't get, as many other people, is why this has not been fixed all together instead of one for proxy auth, one for basic auth, one for form auth and so on?

Result: firefox is still as "unusable" as before and even got a more erratic behaviour inside enterprises: sometimes it works sometimes not.

Also why has this new bug appeared whereas form based multiple prompts have already been discussed in other bugs for years? Looks to me as if people want to evade the issue.
