Follow-up Comment #2, bug #34326 (project grub):

PolicyKit simply provides organisation and a means by which unprivileged users
can perform privileged actions.

In short, it is a cool sudo :)

This does not mean however, that every user can do privileged actions,
administrators can impose restrictions and in order to complete these actions,
the user's password must be entered.

Shipping a PolicyKit action file would just streamline the process or using
PolicyKit (provide a suitable name and description), and wouldn't add anything
that couldn't currently be achieved.

Hopefully I have explained this well enough, but if I haven't please reply
back and I will try harder :)
