Multiple requests for master password from Save Password Editor

I am using Secure Login with Saved Password Editor within FF 7.0.1. I believe that the former is not behaving correctly. Specifically, it keeps asking for the Master password to be entered even though it had been entered. I thought that it was only to ask when FF is first opened???

In current Firefox versions the master password expires after 30 minutes and needs to be re-entered if it is needed.
