I wouldn't call myself a domain expert on this, but ...
cc-remote-login-helper at least should be able to be updated. (It's making
dbus calls to systemd to enable sshd.)

Other stuff may be more like fundamentally replacing the whole app/tool.

I wonder if a first step might be to split out pkexec into a subpackage, and
then gradually remove requirements on it.
