** Description changed:

- Each time I open Synaptic Package Manager in Ubuntu2D, the password
- dialog comes up, and then immediately loses focus.
+ Each time I launch Synaptic Package Manager in Ubuntu2D, the
+ Authenticate (password) dialog pops up, and THEN *immediately* loses
+ focus.
  
- Someone not recognizing this, could continue typing their password
+ Someone not recognizing this, might CONTINUE typing their password
  (inadvertently) into whatever application DOES have focus. Because of
  this, this could be considered a security related bug.
+ 
+ The Authenticate (password) dialog SHOULD pop up and REMAIN focused,
+ until the user finishes entering the password, or until the user
+ intentionally changes the focus in some explicit manner.
