Nice, I just use lxqt-openssh-askpass, but I am on X11. A lighter alternative (for single-text input) would be FLTK. Version 1.4 is really nice, with Wayland support, and they even draw custom window decorations on GNOME. Both Cairo and FLTK should be able to compile with -X; not sure, though, about the status of the Zig bindings.

These implementations really need to also include fingerprint sensor support

PAM really needs to be ravamped and support for (among other things) running multiple stacks in par@llel added. This way you could ask for a password OR a fingerprint

Love the tab title shenanigans when switching to and from the tab.

Would love to see more projects using gtk and zig. Always nice to have another language option.
