Bug Description
The "Authentication required" screen appeared while I was changing software repository settings, but it is stuck there:
1. I can click "cancel" but there is no effect
2. The window is now always on top of any other window, despite the original Software Repository Settings windows has been closed (actually, terminated manually)
As you can see in the screenshot, The Firefox windows has focus now as I am typing in the address bar, but still the "dead" authentication window is on top.
