The user has to move the dialog to locate the authentication dialog that needs attention first. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open multiple tabs with sites requiring http-authentication 2. kill firefox 3. reopen firefox and restore session Actual Results: authentication dialog covers other authentication dialog Expected Results: Give focus to dialog which requires users attention

Is it really a duplicate of #348997? Because I looked at that bug before, but it is about prompting for the SAME site and SAME credentials. This bug is about different sites and wrong order of password dialogs.
you are right, it's different but this should be a dupe of bug 59314
