Oh, if that's the intent, that's of course perfectly fine.
I'd be happy to provide any needed documentation about KAuth, but you'll
only really need it if you want to run checks on the source code, as KAuth
uses existing mechanisms (PolicyKit (both 1 and 0.9 are supported), D-Bus
activation) for the actual privilege escalation, it's just a source-level
abstraction layer (so for example, you won't find a PolicyKit policy in the
source code, but a KAuth policy which is converted to a PolicyKit policy at
build time).
