I think the bug that the pinentry window is opened behind the window of 
the application that invoked it is fixed with pinentry-qt4 0.8.1-1.

But now there is the problem you described. The window does not get focus, 
which on one side can be considered a feature, but on the other hand is 
quite dangerous: If the window of the application that invoked pinentry-
qt4 still accepts keyboard input when the pinentry window has opened, the 
entered password can appear in clear text on the screen.
