Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable
release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test
with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about
it at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate
your help.

Title:
  bzr password window exhibits unusual behaviour (cannot move window,
  cannot give focus to another window and DISPLAY not being honoured)

Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bzr

  If you run a bazaar command such as "bzr pull" for a launchpad repo it
  needs you to specify a password (for your ssh key). bzr thus pops up a
  gtk window prompting for the password. However, there are a few
  problems here both with the strategy and the implementation:

  1) You cannot give any other window focus until you have provided a
  password to bzr (the bzr window steals focus and is set to "always on
  top". This stops you from looking at another window (which might just
  contain the password details you require!)

  2) You cannot move the bzr window. (Same use case as above).

  3) bzr still pops up this window even if you unset DISPLAY
     This is unexpected behaviour. Conventially, the expectation would be that bzr would drop back to prompting for the
     password using a non-GUI non-echoing password prompt via the terminal.
