bts reassign 817998 gnome-terminal
bts retitle 817998 gnome-terminal: processes launched via dbus-launched gnome-terminal-server do not have a session and hence are not granted access by polkit
found 817998 3.14.1-1+deb8u1
bts forwarded 817998 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759115
thanks

This is caused by gnome-terminal's design of spawning all child
processes via gnome-terminal-server which is spawned from the user's
dbus session.

For a 'fun' reproduction, launch nm-connection-editor from gnome-
terminal and try to figure out why it doesn't work. :)
