Yeah, I meant the dbus level rather than the hal level.

at_console doesn't quite do the right thing in Fedora, in that it'll 
either let anyone who logged in at the console run things, or 
alternatively it'll only let the first person who logged in at the 
console run things (I can't remember which off-hand). Ubuntu's is 
patched to do the right thing as long as libpam-foreground is used. This 
probably needs to be brought up on the dbus list.
