add the ability to use windows credentials for 'Authentication Required' popup dialogs
loads of our internal sites, will throw a popup for 'Authentication Required' when you try and navigate to a page, we use our windows login credentials here
Can there be some way of enabling 'use login credentials' and skip this popup entirely

What sites?
These site are internal and so there isnt a way for you to access them, the message is from the browser, not the website and so I would assume this popup will appear on other sites which use domain users? (ADFS style)
Once entered these credentials will last until you close firefox.
There is something related under '(i)' (on search bar) > more information > security > view saved passwords
This seems to record the Last login-credentials which I entered manully, it would be nice if you could bypass this manual-ness
See also:
- Options/Preferences -> General -> Network Proxy: Settings:
"Do not prompt for authentication if password is saved"
(it is at the bottom, so you may need to scroll down)

This option, unfortunately , has no effect on these 'authentication required' pop-ups.
Even after I enter my credentials, click save, and then re-open firefox (my details are pre-populated) but it won't sign in for me
