IIRC you already have access to the wiki and could do this yourself. 
Note that Packagekit already provides a better solution with integration 
via PolicyKit which allows different authentication methods.

I would like to be sure that this is ok to be put on wiki, and to get
some eyeballs if I made some terrible mistake :)

Put in the drafts section at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts 
and everybody can review and edit if necessary.

Should this go in the Software Management Guide [1]?  I have a spot in
there for PackageKit (which I really need to work on).  The SMG should
be getting ready to be published in the final documentation but if this
needs to be added lets get it done early vice later.

That would really depend on atleast two things

a) audience - are you aiming for new users or more technical audience too?

b) Which version of Fedora are you targeting?
