Here's a really easy way to reproduce this problem. Assuming you have an ssh keypair which allows you to login on your own machine, do this:
while `true`; do ssh localhost exit; done;
console-kit-daemon will runaway with the CPU eventually.
In my opinion this is a very serious problem for anybody running Ubuntu who has a lot of users or who has cron jobs.
