Hello,

I have a QT application that logs into a remote machine through SSH. I plan
on using polkit in some way for privileged access to admin commands that
are not services. I want to be able to handle both password-less and
password authentication in polkit. What's the best way of handling a
password prompt remotely with polkit? I would like to have the QT
application pass the password to polkit in some way.
