Comment (by jdreed):
Right, ok, this problem was a false positive. What
"org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.NotPrivileged: Authorization is
required" actually means is "You asked to reboot, but someone else is
logged in, and you're not root, so go away." The "problem" here is that
unlike all other greeters, our greeter actually bothers to check the
return value when asking lightdm to initiate a reboot. I'll catch the
error and display a more useful message.
