So, KDE-4.3 uses PolicyKit to provide access to SystemSettings::Login 
Manager.  But, it appears that PolicyKit is also used to control access 
to SystemSettings:PolicyKit Authorization.  This results in a bootstrap 
problem.  Didn't anyone consider this?

The question is, how do I authorize a user account (not using 
SystemSettings?) so that I can use SystemSettings::PolicyKit 
Authorization to authorize the user account to gain access to various 
things -- specifically to configure the Login Manager in this case.
