Thanks for filing this one. Had a conversation about this one on the DC
sprint and it was agreed to change the SIM PIN authentication.

"Just to sum up: If we reforge the authentication screen into a similar dialog 
as we currently have for WiFi password input, then it can sit basically 
anywhere in the UI.
This would allow to sit it even on top of the greeter because users will see 
what is in the background and it would be the first thing they are informed 
about. This way we would cover the issue that SIM PIN, Greeter and 
passcode/passphrase screens are visually too similar (by mistake putting in 
your passcode instead of SIM PIN and vice versa). Since the SIM PIN 
authentication can be triggered from System Settings, indicator menu and 
possibly later from apps which require SIM as dialer and messaging (on action), 
it would make sense to give it the same behaviour as other dialogs triggered 
from the system.

As mterry pointed out we might need to wait for the "dialog/notification
refactoring that Mirco is working on.""
