I have master password enabled. Sometimes I want to skip entering the password, but on some sites it asks for my master password again and again on each new page. I (or someone else on my PC) doesn't want to log in, just to surf without all the prompts. Is there any way of turning this facility off temporarily?

There is currently no way that I know of to turn off the Master password temporaily only permanently. You can turn it off for some websites by going to Tools--Options--Security--Exceptions and type the address you want to disable the master password for

Right. I think it ought to work that once you have dismissed the prompt it does not come back again in that session for that site.

You can disable the Password Manager temporarily if you remove the check mark to remember passwords. That won't remove existing passwords. Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Remember passwords for sites"

You can also use an extension to toggle the pref signon.rememberSignons between true/false Prefswitch: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6485 Custom Buttons2: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/5066
