>From the Software Center wiki [1]: "Later versions may include recommendation features, replace Synaptic, APTonCD, and most of the Computer Janitor, and integrate with Update Manager. Replacing other utilities will make handling software easier, improve user safety, free space on the Ubuntu CD, and provide a prominent showcase for Ubuntu and partner software."
That being said, I agree that if synaptic's features aren't brought to software-center, it makes sense to port synaptic to use polkit. But that's just my 2 cents.
