not good, screen readers in command line environments like espeak and fenrir
and speechdup at the least are not going to like this.

This behaves precisely the same way: :30-1:00 wait time for KDE to put up a
"password" prompt which requires I use a mouse. Jude DaShiell

Have you tried running emacs -nw inside of a terminal yet and interfacing
with a password yet?

With Emacs 25.1.1, password prompts are no longer in the menu bar but via
my (KDE/Plasma) window manager. Not only is this annoying, it is costly
-- it takes 30 seconds to a full minute for the popup to appear,
meanwhile Emacs is frozen. I would love for this to just be the menu
prompt, as it used to be. I've tried
`(setq menu-prompting nil)` but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I see
these prompts most often when opening .gpg files and when trying to
perform a git push. I'm hoping someone will tell me there is a better way
to disable these than just rebuilding emacs from source with X menus
disabled (particularly as I have been pleased to get my emacs from the
repo without needing to build from source).
Good news would be much appreciated!
