The problem with the current keyboard grab implementation is that it prevents the user accessing third party password stores:
* A user can't select another window top copy a password to the clipboard * The clipboard is either cleared or inaccessible from the password dialog, so a previously selected password cannot be pasted in. Right now, I have two paths: * Allow the password store to display passwords to the screen so I can read them while typing (assuming the password dialog box doesn't obscure that part of the screen; it's an immovable window). * Cancel and hope that the requesting application will let me enter a password by some other means (ie the terminal I'm running it from). -- keyring dialog is not modal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/114963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for GNOME Keyring. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
