v1.15.4 (2011-04-05)
Just a stupid bug fix - custom identification string was displayed on any prompts, not only on master password prompt.

v1.15.3 (2011-03-31)
!Fixed: TB would freeze on startup if it was closed during locked state and "ask password on startup" is disabled
!Fixed: hotkey would not work in additional windows

v1.15.2 (2011-03-30)
!Fixed: extension is broken on some systems (I call a bs on this one, works fine on two test profiles and doesn't work on third, go figure...)

* Changed: replaced checkbox at MP prompt with a button. Now only pressing that button will activate temporary MP suppression
* Changed: some default settings
* Changed: color of the notification bar when MP prompt was suppressed
* Changed: icon of the notification bar when MP prompt was suppressed
! Fixed: FF4 - mouse wheel scrolling not working on some sites after MP prompt was blocked. In some cases there could be a side effect with this fix: window will loose focus for a brief moment. You can disable this fix by adding "FF4" (without quotes) to the comma separated list in "extensions.masterPasswordPlus.noworkaround" setting via about:config page.
