Btw, to support non-trivial and more useful inhibitor messages, the protocol
should support strings like


i18n:gettext-domain=udisks2;gettext-message=Formatting%20Device$(device);variable.device=/dev/sda1

The client will use gettext(3) to expand this to

 Formatting Device $(device)
 Formatterer enhed $(device)   # da_DK
 Formatierungseinrichtung $(device)

and then the client also replaces all instances of $(foo) with the value of
variable.foo so we get

 Formatting Device /dev/sda1
 Formatterer enhed /dev/sda1   # da_DK
 Formatierungseinrichtung /dev/sda1

Again, this is pretty much how polkit works, see

for an example.
