Package: gcr
Version: 3.12.2-1
Followup-For: Bug #734908

The focus-grabbing behavior is in fact problematic when the goal is to
ask for a remote account's password. It is common nowadays for these
passwords to be kept in a password manager such as Revelation. A system
modal dialog prevents the user from accessing such a password store. See
also bug #748729.
