Description
Users are not always clever. They download any software and run it. If they get an security dialog they click on yes to get their application work. Even if the must enter a password they do it.
If a program is found attempting to violate a security setting, the user will not be prompted to permit the action; the action will simply be denied. If the user wishes to grant permission for such an action, the user can do so through the graphical security center interface.
So a grand dialog for "manage security settings" should be only appear if the application is /usr/bin/user-admin, /user/bin/network-admin, etc.
