It would be nice if there was a way to configure the location and
appearance of the dialog that asks the user for their password.
Specifically, I have recently gotten a second monitor and am using them
in dual-headed (TwinView) mode.  The password dialog appears centered
across both monitors, which makes it hard to read, and I'd like to be
able to customize it.

thanks,
Brian Minton
