This bug still exists in Firefox/30.0 on Windows. I believe the prompt string "Please enter the master password for the Software Security Device" needs to be changed from a read-only text box GUI element to a "label" GUI element.
This bug still exists in Firefox/35.0.1 on Windows.
Summary: Master Password Input modal window incorrectly has selectable text instructions → Master Password Input modal window incorrectly has selectable text instructions (input field can lose focus when activating the window)
This is an issue with the nsIPromptService.promptPassword implementation.

It's consistent with the web - user is free to select and copy any text on screen.
