Hi! Upgrading to version 100 has made Firefox completely unusable for me. Every time I open it, the "Password required" popup appears, which is normal. However, whether I enter my primary password or click "Cancel", the popup goes to the background and I cannot close it, nor click on anything in the app. In fact, I cannot even close the app except from the upper menu bar (I'm on OSX). See the attached screenshot to get an idea. Please help!!!

Tried to solve it by refreshing Firefox (launch it while pressing "option"), but the problem comes back periodically
