What happens if we want to revoke privs?

Personally I like the fact we can do all this over DBUS, because
programs like gnome-power-manager do not have to link to specific
libraries and just use a couple line dbus-glib method.

Just my p-o-v tho, as I don't pretend to understand the subtleties of
all the situations.
