Hi Dotan, The place to ask would actually be the kde-core-devel mailing list where such things are handled, but I suspect it will be just too late for this now (policykit-kde was recently rejected for late inclusion). I think your best chance would be to actually request your distro to package it separately. I think you're on openSUSE, right? There shouldn't be too much issue getting it included, perhaps even back-ported, if not in the official repos then somewhere in the Build Service. Cheers!
