I've found the problem. In Firefox there's a setting in Privacy which says "Accept third party cookies". As per the documented behavior here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.cookie.cookieBehavior
if that is unchecked, network.cookie.cookieBehavior = 1 and "will allow cookies from the originating server only". This is causing some issues in using the bookmarklet - since the originating server is different, it doesn't allow the application to log in the user, even though he may be logged in another tab. Not sure if this helps anyone, but I'm posting these findings for future reference.
