Werner,
Since I've never used Pinentry, I'm obviously missing something here.
While I'm aware that spying on X-Window is not too complicated, how does
manually entering a passphrase into Pinentry make snooping harder.
Admittedly, I've never looked at the code so I probably don't know the
whole story. Is entry into Pinentry vulnerable to traditional keylogging?
