How does that happen in detail?
Are you refering to the following case:
You start typing in the pinentry and after the third key you have pressed,
a new, different window pops up and the fourth key goes to that window?
Or is it:
You see the pinentry, but your keyboard focus is elsewhere, so you start
typing, but the first key goes to the other window (which still had the
focus).
