No, not really. While this bug was filed during the F11 cycle, the plan
for PolicyKit 1 has always been to land it early in the F12 cycle. The
idea was to have most of the porting done by the time F12 opens. Just
looking at when a bug was filed does not always tell you the full story
of what version it is targeted at...
