Steps to reproduce:

1 - throw your mouse away
2 - go to site that requires password
3 - login - firefox offers to save password for you
4 - hit tab key to get out of dialog (fail)


Actual results:

You cannot tab away from the password manager dialog - can't even get to the browser address bar


Expected results:

Password dialog should not hog the tab key.

(Yes you can hit escape but you should not need to escape from a passive non-modal dialog)

Even skipping step 1 (i.e. you may keep your mouse...), the password manager still steals focus, both when letting you chose a past login, and when asking you to remember a new login.

See bug 1386699, for which I attached a patch.
