Cockpit, OpenLMI, and others want to use the systemd D-Bus API to manage system services/sockets etc. In addition we use polkit to authorize users and allow people to escalate privileges as needed.
It seems that the D-Bus API of systemd doesn't support polkit: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/dbus/ So currently only root users can call this D-Bus API. Is the concept here that we write our own wrapper daemon (something like systemd-polkit-verifyd) that listens on a different bus name and authorizes with polkit before forwarding messages to systemd?
