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).
