[Desktop-packages] [Bug 437508] Re: policykit prompts don't use sensible defaults (current user should be default)

If the current user is admin, the dialog shall prompt for his password directly. A list of admin users makes sense only if the current user is not admin. In Ubuntu 16.04, after adding second administrative user there is a drop-down but password entry is disabled before selecting the other admin an
