Comment 423 for bug 332945

If you can provide a realistic way of spoofing either the updates window or the resulting password dialog in a way that an Ubuntu user might be exposed to (e.g. a Web page or an e-mail message), please attach a demo to bug 370248. Thanks.

Loïc Martin, it should be abundantly clear from the comments in this bug report that saving space was not the primary rationale for making this change. (And even if it had been, that would not necessarily mean the interface must be changed starting with the biggest element and working down.)

John Vivirito, you're giving me unpleasant flashbacks from a decade ago, when people used to propose various inane design issues be offered as options in the Mozilla installer (for example, <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48688>). It would be even less useful for Ubuntu now than it would have been for Mozilla then, because many if not most Ubuntu users don't install the OS themselves.
