PolicyKit.conf is now???

In fedora 11 someone posted this wondrous tidbit of wisdom which made my
life much simpler:

edit /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf

Add this stuff inside the config tag:

<config version="0.1">
   <match user="root">
      <return result="yes"/>
   </match>
</config>

That says the answer to any policykit question about what root can
do is "yes dammit!"

There is no such file in fedora 12, and no policykit files I look
at even appear to use xml anymore.

Anyone know how to teach policykit that root is by God root (or know
if that is finally the sane default now)?
