Has passwords changed? And why is Google involved?
It seems like Google is entwined in the password area. The whole point of using Mozilla is to get AWAY from Google and its tentacles. Some of my passwords have been lost it seems.

Your Google Account password is used to access many Google products, like Gmail and YouTube.

I suppose it's your first credentials in the alphabetical order.
Are you referring to the chrome protocol item that is used for the Firefox Account entry that stores the about:config credentials in the Firefox Password Manager in JSON format (kA and kB) ?
Firefox uses the Password Manager to store the credentials of the Firefox Sync account (chrome://FirefoxAccounts) to make it possible to connect to Sync each time you start Firefox without the need to enter email and password.
Firefox uses the "chrome://" protocol to access its internal files and use chrome in other cases like userChrome.css (no relation with Google Chrome).
