As others have pointed out, the standard password manager lets you do
this - if you do things in the right order (show passwords for
everything, enter master password, THEN search on the password of

While waiting, did some digging and found some stuff. For anyone
who's interested:

WaltS is correct - passwords are stored inside <profile>/signon.sqlite
the sqlite-manager lets you browse an sqlite file, but, not available
(yet) for seamonkey 2.13.2
- of course, nothing stops one from browing the file via FireFox
- there's also a stand-alone sqlite browser at
sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net and command line tools at sqlite.org
- probably a good idea to play with a copy of the file, not the live
profile
Data in the username and password field are encrypted, at least if you
use a master password. If you DON'T have a master password set, some
of the documentation on the mozilla dev website suggests things might
be encoded Base64 (though the doc was for pre-sqlite password files,
not sure if it's still the case).
This is kind of where I stopped, once NooP and Dave pointed out how to
get to what I'm looking for through the standard password manager. I
expect there is a way to decrypt a column in one of the above
browsers; or it might take a little bit of SQL.
Found a neat trick for encrypting/decrypting passwords, while googling
around:
type javascript:btoa("foo") into the URL bar and Seamonkey will
display the encrypted version of "foo"
type javascript:atob("xyzza") into the URL bar and Seamonkey will
display the decrypted version of "xyzza")
--- i.e., if you're searching for all line with password "foo" - encrypt
it, and then search on the result
