Please read my comment carefully: did I say that wasn't a problem? Did I
say it shouldn't be fixed? The only point I made was that given the mess
we have created around the bug in this report, and given we have now
identified the precise issue, you'd better file a new bug if you want
people to understand quickly what it's about.

Debugging and symptoms won't help a developer to fix the bug: most of
our comments deal with discovering what's going on, and half of them
deal with a completely different bug. Developers know remote connections
are not detected by ConsoleKit: they don't need debugging, they need to
be paid to implement this feature, or, if you prefer, fix this bug. The
cleaner the report, the more likely somebody will look at it.

Anyway, I've found the master bug for this: that's bug 221363.
Discussion should happen there, and possibly on the ubuntu-devel-discuss
mailing list, or on the #ubuntu-dev IRC channel, since that's a policy
change.

But please stop assuming people here are fighting against you to prevent
bugs from being fixed. When we mark a bug as duplicate, that doesn't
mean it won't be fixed - on the contrary, it means it has less chances
of being lost. And keeping a bug open as-is won't guarantee at all that
it will be fixed, it may well be forgotten for ages. We're trying to
regulate the flux of bugs by putting them in the appropriate categories,
and personally, working as a benevolent, I'd like you to understand that
my only goal is not to annoy reporters - else I wouldn't try to help
here.
