Doesn't he want to look in ?
/usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/

specifically in,  /usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/hal-storage.policy

Am I reading this correctly as saying that the active Console user has
access to mount, but all inactive console users do not?

<action id="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed">
    <description>Mount file systems from internal drives.</description>
    <message>System policy prevents mounting internal media</message>
    <defaults>
      <allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
      <allow_active>auth_admin_keep_always</allow_active>
    </defaults>
  </action>

If this policy were changed to allow_active to 'no' would that
effectively hide all fixed partitions from the console user?
