No, I don't want a new way to enter the password, I just want to
disable the GUI pop-up so that I can enter the password from the
command line.

When ssh is running in a non-GUI terminal window (i.e. I'm logged into
an intermediate server using ssh) I get asked for the passphrase key
in the terminal window.  That's what I want to happen *always*, the GUI
pop-up is a real pain to move to and enter the password.
