Hi!

I have two Jabber accounts configured. If I start pidgin, it tries to
login into both accounts. Since I don’t save my passwords, pidgin opens
a window for every account, so I can enter my password.

If the timing is bad, the second window opens while I’m typing the
password into the first window overlapping the first window, so the end
of the password for the first account gets into the password field of the
second account.

In my opinion pidgin should not open a new password window if another
window is already open. Or pidgin should make sure that it not in the way
of the other window.

Shade and sweet water!
