Comment (by acat):

 There's a patch for torbutton to fix the saved logins here
 https://github.com/acatarineu/torbutton/commit/30565.

 Note: using `sticky_pref()` instead of `pref()` in `000-tor-browser.js`
 should have prevented this behaviour (the pref would not have been removed
 from `user.js` when it matched the default value).
