You do not have control of what to user enter in this dialog, its
main purpose is to create some "rights" and return them to you if
the user is allow to use them.
Usually this dialog is automatically displayed when you query some
authorizaton. The cocoa way to do this is to use the
"SFAuthorization" class from SecurityFoundation framework.
What do you want to do exactly with this dialog ?
In my case, I'm needing to manage the password for a USB Thumb drive
that supports a password protected area. I could implement this by
itself pretty easily, using the NSSecureTextField, except that I
would like to go much farther than simple password entry.
I would like provide the ability for users to store the password on
their keychain.
I would like to utilize the "Password Assistant" for creating
passwords.
I found a discussion of the Password Assistant, along with a link to
a sample program using it at http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?PasswordAssistant
Unfortunately, the methods needed to utilize it would indicate to me
that Apple considers it to be a private API.
That same discussion also seems to indicate that the password entry
dialog used in diskimages-helper is also private.
So, unless I'm missing something, it looks like I'm going to be
rolling my own dialog.
Thanks for your time,

Ok, you mean "password creation" dialog, not "password query" dialog.
Sorry for the confusion.
So no, I don't think there is a public API to invoke it. You can fill
a bug report to request this features.
