<http://www.mail-archive.com/polkit-devel@lists.freedesktop.org/msg00148.html> David Zeuthen claims that restarting the system dbus daemon introduces a security hole. No details, but it's something to do with policykit and unique names. Hopefully someone who understands policykit better than me can comment.
