My personal pet peeve is doing a `ps -elfH` and seeing systemd-ask-password at the leaf of a process tree just sitting there:

* https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/syst...

Why are asking for a password? Which password? For what service? Can I get the prompt for it somehow? Can I echo something to?

I've had this happen in the past with mysqld, and I had to resort to running /usr/sbin/mysqld from the CLI manually to get any kind of error or logging messages.
