[Bug 696693] [NEW] Doesn't select current user when asking for password

[Adam Porter]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kpackagekit

I'm sorry if this is the wrong package--but it happens so much in
KPackageKit that it's a huge hassle.

Whenever I install packages in KPackageKit, when it prompts for the
password, it pops up a box with a drop-down user list that initially
says "Select User," and I have to choose the user I'm logged in as
before I can type in my password.

This is silly.  It should select the current user automatically, and put
the cursor and focus in the password field.  This is how it worked in
KDE 3.5 in Kubuntu Hardy--this is a regression.
