This is the fedora discussion:
http://www.linux-archive.org/fedora-development/358521-policykit-0-9-going-away.html

Their KDE project meeting about it:

Another related bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519674

It appears the only authorization agent at this moment is the one
provided by polkit-gnome, so the "OnlyShowIn" should not be limited to
GNOME only as stated by the bugreport.
