I have two XFCE installations here, one with Debian and one with Arch

Same here :-)

I notice a few of the packages on Arch are more up to date
than on Debian. I'm hoping I might be able to help with that.


XFCE still has a working polkit;
I guess you are referring to mate-polkit?


all the user would need to do is enable it

They would need to install it first.
That sounds easy, for those in the know,
but its not intuitive for users to have to look
for an authentication agent from other DEs

There have been several independent bug reports
on this issue which shows this is an ongoing problem.
