Hey. You all interpreted correctly. I used Fedora, Gnone.

Once entering a password in only one field, be it the first or second, invoking
OK starts an endless process. At this state, 
1. Attempting to enter into the confirmation field a password won't be
operational;
2. OK button wss greyed out, while Cancel button alone was available.

Some observations:
– OK button has been in my tests available for being invoked right from the
beginning of the apparition of window illustrated by
kleopatra_3.1.4_failed_password_setting_1.png while no passwords had yet been
entered into any fields.

– The second field –the one aimed for password confirmation– was opened to
receive some content even while the first field –the one aimed to enter a
reference password– had been left blank. Yet during that operation, OK button
remained available.

Those reflections came to me:
– OK button could be greyed out right from the beginning until both fuels have
been supplied with some content which then make it at last available for beeing
invoked.

– The second field could be closed, eventually adding a greyed-out background
to it in order to make its state explicit, until a password has been entered
into the first field and user has switched to the second field.

– Once both fields have been supplied with content, invoking OK button would
process informations contained within these fields then check that they match
each other. In case they don't, a typical message related to the situation
would be exhibited, such as "Passwords do not match each other.", but without
the need to lead to a failure.
