Recently, we noticed that firstboot now has a checkbox to give admin privileges to the first user. It does so by adding the user to the wheel group, which unfortunately, doesn't do much [1] for PolicyKit, which was using a different group to identify the Administrator role. To fix this disconnect, David, Bill and I decided that we should change the PolicyKit policy that we ship to use the wheel group for this purpose as well. At the same time, we are dropping the not-really-implemented concept of 'Supervised' user. It can come back when we have a working, integrated solution for parental controls. So, very soon, in F15, we will have only administrators (who are in the wheel group), and regular users (who are not). The desktop_admin_r and desktop_user_r groups will no longer be created or used. The changes to the PolicyKit desktop policy can be seen here: [2]. Just thought I should mention this here in case anybody else was doing anything with the desktop_admin_r or desktop_user_r groups and related PolicyKit permissions.
