PolicyKit Editor is taking shape

I'm having fun learning Python! Once it all starts to click, it gets easier :)

So now I have the beginnings of a Python-based GUI utility which reads in a PolicyKit XML policy file, and you can select each action from a drop-down combobox. Upon selection, the window will display the Description, and current settings of the selected action…

Run the program...

Run the utility…

Select the policy file...

Select the policy file…

Select action to examine

And selecting the actions within the policy shows the default actions for it.

That's how things have progressed so far.

Next up is to be able to change the default options and then save the XML policy file back. Shouldn't be long now.

I'll release this after I extensively test it. Stay tuned ;)
