Excellent summary, thank you Miguel.

I think Ubuntu without the menu -- or any other way to discard those privileges -- would be better than Ubuntu with the menu. Gnome 3 drops it anyway, so in that respect this bug is fixed.

Better still would be to have an understandable way of controlling whether the password is remembered. One way of controlling it, ahead of time, would be to have a checkbox in the PolicyKit dialog itself.
