The primary password prompt will reappear if you haven't been in a situation that needs it for 15 minutes

Is there a hardcoded default now of 15 mins if security.ask_for_password = 0 ? I think some of these prefs and values could be simplified at some stage

current user.js info (updated)

/* 0903: set when Firefox should prompt for the primary password
 * 0=once per session (default), 1=every time it's needed, 2=after n minutes (0904) ***/
user_pref("security.ask_for_password", 2);
/* 0904: set how long in minutes Firefox should remember the primary password (0903) ***/
user_pref("security.password_lifetime", 5); // [DEFAULT: 30]

PS: I am not worried about the bug, just trying to understand where 15 minutes came from
