It is a problem because the system asks them for a password even before they
have typed in "admin://" (it asks them after typing "admin:" instead) so they
mistakenly end up typing the "/" in the password field which stole the input
field focus so they couldn't completely type "admin://". Users of GNOME and
Cinnamon would do this as their admin protocol asks for the password after the
user types in "admin://" as described above instead of after typing "admin:".
