When i want to install a rpm from web site i get precented for a lot of 
dialogs.

This one is ok, it ask if want to install and rpm.
dialog1

This one i not needed,  IMO,  pk should just copy it and go one
dialog2

The dialog is need, but the text dont make sense to my wife, she dont 
know what at
GPG signature is.
And malicious software text will scare the crap out of her.
Maybe it should be changed to something like
"Software you are trying to install, is not signed by a trusted 
provider, do not install software from
places you don't trust. You will need to know the the root password, for 
your system to be allowed to
install the software.
Do you want to continue to installing the software.
                                                                             
[Yes]  [No]"
dialog

the PolicyKit dialog is fine.
