The pinentry dialog steals focus

Running Tails 3.3, If I use the openpgp applet to “Decrypt/Verify Clipboard”, the password prompt steals focus for mouse and keyboard. This is problematic e.g. when using a password manager for the requisite password.

I just noticed that choosing “Encrypt Clipboard with Passphrase” steals focus as well for the pin entry.

I tried using keyboard shortcut Super+Tab to switch applications, but it seems all keyboard and mouse input is focused on that password prompt while it is up. Hopefully this is an easy fix.
