Question - PolicyKit

One thing which has really annoyed me since PolicyKit was introduced to 
Fedora is that the dialog has "Remember authorization" checked by 
default. In and of itself, not a HUGE deal, but it does not remember the 
option you select, so if you choose NOT to remember authorization, you 
have to be careful to uncheck that option /every single time/. So 
optimally, you'd hope for it to remember your last selection, but even 
if that were not implemented, you'd hope the default made more sense - 
i.e. why would the default be to opt-in? If you do opt in, you never see 
that dialog again anyway, so you wouldn't need to worry about changing 
the option except the first time you see it. On the other hand, if you 
do not want to remember authorization, you have to switch from the 
default EVERY time or your settings will be changed.

Is there a way to configure the default option checked for the PolicyKit 
dialog?
