[Bug 3369] Local script, invoked via "Match ... exec <script>" is disconnected from stdin/stdout

--- Comment #2 from Carl Ponder <cponder at nvidia.com> ---
I've found a suitable workaround for this, by detecting the PTY and
re-directing the input/output to use it:

     PTY=$(ps --no-headers $$ | xargs index 2)
     printf "Enter the password: " > /dev/$PTY
     read -r -s pw < /dev/$PTY

You're welcome to close this as "not a bug" or re-set it to be an
"enhancement request". But I'm still curious why the stdin/stdout are
disabled.
