was asked about this at IRC today, so I suppose we should convey this
information better to users

The default value of AdminIdentities changed to group wheel by upstream
since version 0.103.
This means users in group wheel are allowed to execute commands like
"pkexec bash" to gain root shell.
You can change the default value at:
# $EDITOR /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/50-localauthority.conf
