Current behavior

When VeraCrypt needs elevated privileges, it shows a non-standard dialog with one password field.

Desired behavior

VeraCrypt should adopt macOS’ standard authentication dialog (which offers both a username and password field).
This is particularly desirable for people using VeraCrypt in a non-admin account and who need temporary admin rights to perform an operation.
