Package: ssh-askpass
Version: 1:1.2.4.1-9
Severity: normal
Using openbox, i sometimes mark a window "always on top" with the
window context menu. According to xprop, this apparently adds the
_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE flag to the _NET_WM_STATE(ATOM) list.
I believe the same thing is done by lxterm (LXDE's terminal emulator)
when it is run in full-screen mode.
However, if i run ssh-askpass from such a window (or from any other
window, when such a window covers the region of the screen ssh-askpass
pops up), then the ssh-askpass window is obscured, and the keyboard is
not properly grabbed (i can M-Tab to the dialog window, and off of it
again).
This seems buggy to me, though i confess i don't fully understand
_NET_WM_STATE. Perhaps ssh-askpass should also set
_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE before showing the dialog box?
Regards,
--dkg
