I just tested GNOME 3 Shell desktop environment and I have to say that they got it right. All authorization dialogs dim the screen and focus the keyboard for input. Would the security team be willing to preform a review of GNOME Shell's implementation of the fix for this issue and, if it fits the bill, recommend it to be implemented in gnome-based desktop environments (unity, gnome classic).
