For the command line you can setup sudo as you wish. (PASSWORD or NOPASSWORD)

For gui stuff, just look at all the keys in the dialog for polkit (or
gnome-polkit, I don't recall exactly. Not on a Fedora machine right
now). Some of the keys are named rather non-intuitively, so you may
have to fool around a bit. I also seem to recall some discussions on
this on fedora-list within the last 6 months. I don't recall the name
of the thread though. So searching the archives will also help.
