I should expand on that a bit: This GUI element is used for all kinds
of things tied to a window, not just passwords. For example, if you
try to close a window that contains stuff you haven't saved, the same
element is used to ask you to confirm, save now, or cancel. So it's a
pretty familiar thing to Mac users....
