Are there any plans for a generic support of these "ask user for something"
in Plasma? I was thinking about it for some time, especially because of
how broken is Polkit agent - due to not setting wId (Lubos did a hack for
at least services using KAuth)... And of course, it does not fit event to
desktop Plasma, not talking about PA at all...

So count with PK too... Not sure if anybody started on SystemD password
agent (or I should finish it :). Etc...
