This is pretty much it. However, it would be useful if you could
express in more detail (more specifically) why it is you need something,
and perhaps propose a design.

I've got a design that uses hshift to put the menu on the right-hand
side of the screen for branding purposes.

The problem comes when you get the password dialog come up all off
centred. It's not even centred in the middle of the screen (which
would be enough for now). I'd like to be able to be able to show the
password dialog under my menu with the same width and position.

I'm not quite following you. A picture would help.
