Not so much a config file, as a script. I don't know PolicyKit APIs, but it's basically defining a custom security rule... a callback function for checking whether permissions should be granted. I'm kind of mixed on this stuff - on one hand, it means you have the power of a full programming language for expressing the desired behaviour, which can be useful. On the other hand, it's something that needs some programming experience to understand, and can't really be validated short of running it.
