I'd still like for this to be merged. The stale bot document says that I should request for review by someone who usually merges similar contributions, but I couldn't figure out how to request reviews, and the past 10 contributions were merged by different people, so I'm just pinging one of you: @sternenseemann.

Since libvirtd supports multiple authentication schemes this doesn't seem like a correct change to me. We probably should add an option choosing the authentication scheme (as opposed of handling it via extraConfig solely) additionally, so we can factor it in in the assert.

Yes, that's a fair point. However, in that case someone else would have to implement it (since I don't have enough motivation to work on this as I'm not even using libvirt at the moment). Although it would be possible to use this until someone else eventually decides to implement non-polkit-based auth.
