Public bug reported:

The aircraft manager utility is great, but it forces you to enter the
password any time you like to swith wifi on/off.

The PolicyKit framework could be used instead plain gksu, allowing users
to automatically authenticate when launching the aircraft-manager (if
this is, of course, the behavior desired by user). See
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/PolicyKit/ for more details.
