Public bug reported:
If an account already exists, calling Setup.exec() again results in a
blank window being overlaid on top of the application which made the
request. There is no way to close this window.
This API is what the online accounts integration in the scopes API
relies upon, to allow logging in to accounts, and so we have come to
rely upon this API as well in multiple places, as a means to log into
the Ubuntu One account, when it is necessary to do so. However, due to
this issue, the only way to reliably present a login window at an
appropriate time, is to delete the account when it appears to have been
invalidated by the server, and to then present the login window to
create a new account.
