Well, I had to remove it. It was unworkable to leave it in place and I
could not find a way to make it stop popping up that window that steals
focus and blocks other activities. So, its gone. I am sorry, it
looked like a good idea for the most part.

Despite the discussion in the captioned thread some several years ago,

Enigmail persistently prompts for the password for openpg, stealing the
focus in the process.
There is no apparent rhyme or reason for which email recipients or
accounts for when it chooses to do this.
If I do not click to encrypt or sign the email, and there is no
automatic behavior of this sort explicitly turned on, then it should not
be happening.
There is automatic behaviour, scanning mails in the background, done by
Thunderbird processes. This triggers Enigmail decryption.
You usually solve this kind of trouble by adding a passphrase caching
time. Enigmail -> Preferences, "Basic" tab, "Remember passphrase for x
minutes of idle time." Select x.
It is impossible to work with emails with this installed.
Agreed, but this is not normal behaviour.
