Matthias, is this X-GNOME-SystemSettings accepted by GNOME upstream or
a Fedora/Suse only patch. If the latter I'd suggest to apply my
proposed patch.

 At least with X-GNOME-SystemSettings,
polkit-gnome-authorization.desktop is not correctly sorted into the
GNOME System->Administration menu here.

I checked some upstream GNOME apps, and they seem to use a desktop
file similar to my proposed one
