Background-Story: I did a "flatpak update" on a remote client and every package wants the PW for downloading and for installing again. I had to enter the password like 30 times or more.

I like this.

Flatpak is so bad for single-source-of-truth for install state that you should have to put in your password every time just to confirm you understand the pain you're signing up for.

My only advice here would be if they can change the prompt to say
