Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Chrome using extension version 12.14.0: open the MM popup, log in, and then inspect the Expanded view. Start by tracing how login state is transferred between the popup and Expanded view. Done means a login completed in the popup is reflected in the Expanded view without requiring a second login.
