Yes, what Kyle says is true. AEWP is not recommended.
Now, thought, the *correct* way, integrating BetterAuthorizationSample
into an app is a *lot* of work. However, there is a very slick
shortcut for which I credit Jean-Daniel Dupas: If possible, send the
Finder an AppleEvent instructing it to do the work for you. In this
case, for example, you might be able to ask Finder to copy that file
from /Library to the user's temporary directory. Now, if elevated
privileges are needed, Finder should interface with Authorization
Services to put up the authentication dialog, doing all of the heavy
lifting.
