** 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.
