SUMMARY
Today I discovered a bug in which attempting to change a user password in
system settings fails as polkit is never brought up to authenticate the change.

4. Click on "change password"
5. Enter new password twice
6. Click "set password"
OBSERVED RESULT
"Enter password" dialog goes away. Password is not changed.
