I don't think this is a bzr bug.  bzr isn't creating that window.

bzr delegates SSH connections to the system SSH client (openssh-client
on typical Ubuntu installs). OpenSSH in turn looks for an ssh-agent when
searching for private keys.  In GNOME that agent is gnome-keyring:
<http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Ssh>.

I don't think bzr can sensibly do anything but delegate this to the SSH
implementation.  You have the option to change which SSH implemenation
bzr uses (the bzr_ssh config option), or change the configuration of
openssh via ~/.ssh/config (or perhaps by unsetting SSH_AUTH_SOCK in your
shell?), or change the configuration of gnome-keyring.

So I'll reassign this bug to gnome-keyring as it is primarily it's
behaviour you object to, but feel free to assign it back to bzr if you
disagree.

** Package changed: bzr (Ubuntu) => gnome-keyring (Ubuntu)

bzr password window exhibits unusual behaviour (cannot move window, cannot give 
focus to another window and DISPLAY not being honoured)
