I have a (few) websites which firefox has stored passwords. If I start typing "c..." into the address bar, firefox IMMEDIATELY shows the "Password Required" prompt, stealing focus from the address bar and continuing my typing in the password field.

The event that shows the prompt should NOT be driven by auto-filling suggestions in the address bar, but actually selecting and loading a page.
