Well hopefully this patent will make PolicyKit infringing.

Explicitly suing to root in a shell before running minimal programs to adminster the system... vastly
superior to this overengineered ball of hair called hal, dbus, policykit, devicekit and friends, which
won't even nicely cooperate with other methods. May they burn.
