Comment (by turnstyle):

 Any word on this bug?  I run Windows 7 and Windows Vista, and this has
 been bugging me for the past couple years.  I see the same issue every
 time I start Pidgin and log into my accounts.  Sometimes it's fine and I'm
 able to enter my passwords in, but other times I'm entering my password
 and another password prompt comes up and takes away the focus.  Sometimes
 I press enter because I was just about done with my first password and a
 second account attempts to log in with a single character password
 (because I'd just typed the last character of my password from the
 previous window).

 If it only happened in Enlightenment, I'd agree that it's a window manager
 problem.  But it also occurs on MS Windows, which is still by far the most
 widely used desktop OS.
