Yes, I have port but I'm not sure how to combine it into current KDE as it 
breaks polkit-qt API and I don't like shipping big patches that actually forks 
project. I'd like to see it from upstream.

I'm working on this, we have topic for our next KDE SIG meeting. If you could 
join, it would be great - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/KDE/Meetings.

Matthias, could you please look at

Thanks
