Any program that would allow the restrictions you're talking about has to be
designed for it. How hard is it to design it to take different command-line
arguments for the different cases, rather than using some new API?

Sigh. Once again, those who don't understand Unix are doomed to re-invent
it, poorly.

Thankfully I'm not involved in the design or implementation of PolicyKit, so any lack of clue I have won't be a factor. :-) Are you interested in reviewing the documentation for PolicyKit and bringing your insight to the development list upstream?
