Sure, that's not an insane idea at all. I would imagine most network admins worth their salt would be shipping custom PolicyKit overrides in F12 anyway. Aim for the desktop use cases on the "Desktop" spin, and let other spins change the defaults.
It makes sense to me for the upstream defaults to be fairly restrictive, with changes being made downstream in distros (and their remixes/spins) to loosen those up as needed. In other words, our desktop package group would include whatever was needed to induce the desired behavior in the Desktop spin. A good bit of this issue would need to be addressed upstream though. (Maybe I just repeated what you said, not sure if I caught the nuance.)
