Bug Description
When running multiple commands like this:
SUDO_ASKPASS=
from my gtk4 app, the ssh-askpass-gnome dialog and the gnome inhibitShortcut
This happens in ubuntu 22.04-23.04 (completely updated) using gnome. If i use xfce in the same ubuntu versions, the gnome dialog doesn't pop up, of course, and ssh-askpass-gnome works properly (one entry and then all commands executed without further prompting). Fedora 37 works properly with gnome x11 or wayland, and xfce. Not sure if this is a bug in ubuntu's ssh-askpass-gnome, gnome-shell, or both/something else.
ubuntu 23.04 is using GNOME Shell 44.2 and ssh-askpass-gnome 1:9.0p1-1ubuntu8.2
fedora is using openssh-
thanks

btw, if i sit there and click "allow" and enter the sudo password for every sudo command my app envokes, it will eventually process all of them. So, it's like the preference for the "inhibit shortcuts" dialog is not being saved, and the sudo auth is not being saved for the 15 min or whatever it's set for. I find it odd that both of these things would fail, but maybe one is interfering with the other.
