As of the latest maverick package updates, running gnome-power-
preferences asks for the user's password to run gnome-power-backlight-
helper. There are a few problems with this.
1. this program should not run as my computer is not a laptop and doesn't have
variable backlight setting
2. it requires elevated privileges, meaning non-admin users may no longer be
able to use this
** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
