Honestly, I'm not sure why browsers don't create a pseudo page setup for things like HTTP auth, JavaScript prompts, etc. Instead of an ugly blocking modal, generate a basic login form/page with nicer styling that doesn't take over the entire window or tab. Like they do for a new tab or what not.

Then what about when the scammers copy that page format? Having it appear outside the viewport (how it is on Chrome) can help prevent that
