Description
When using the keybase cli from within xorg, keybase fails everytime it has to ask for a passphrase.
It attempts to spawn a window which fails then gives the error
```
ERROR Input Canceled
```
It works fine in the console. Can there be an option to not try to spawn windows for user input and take input from the terminal instead?

Research direction
Start with the keybase CLI passphrase prompt under Xorg and compare it with the console behavior described here. Done means providing an option that avoids spawning a window and accepts passphrase input from the terminal, with the Xorg and console cases behaving as expected.
