Description Christopher Aillon 2006-02-18 09:45:29 UTC
Might be nice to have a notification area icon to remind the user their credentials are expiring/expired if they cancelled the dialog.

gktools (which can also be used as a partial replacement for krb5 in gnome-kerberos) already does this. Unfortunately it requires a few clicks too many (in the new ticket dialog, it focuses the username, rather than the password field; to get the ticket you need to click on the 'Get ticket' button and can't use Enter; then it shows up a dialog with the message 'Credential successfully acquired' which needs to be dismissed by the user).
