Well, this would make the
owner org.freedesktop.PackageKit.SessionService to actually do the
install using libpackagekit, rather than the calling application (as the
libpackagekit-gnome is in-process). This means we'll be showing the
session daemon, not the calling application as the application trying to
all the InstallPackage method.
