I personally don't think this should be low priority - this affects any
application which ends up causing the gnome shell prompt dialog to
appear - so in my case when reading my email and opening a GPG encrypted
email I get prompted for my GPG passphrase - whilst this is happening my
email client is repeatedly getting <Return> sent to it, causing it to
advance forward to the next email and mark the current one as read - so
this has a real usability impact IMO. This is not just relevant to
terminal applications  etc.

Title:
  [jammy][regression] gnome-shell PolicyKit password prompt sends
  <Return> keys to the terminal

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a regression not seen until this week (not seen until March 4
  at least).  Calling debsign from a terminal pops up the window to
  enter the key, but the terminal is sent continuous <Return> keys and
  the terminal scrolls down with empty input lines. You can still sign
  the file, however you end up with an empty scroll buffer if the
  signing takes too long time.
