--- Comment #11 from Ben Woods <woodsb02 at freebsd.org> ---
I believe I tried your patch as well and did not get an active session either.
I will try again.

I just recently fixed a bug which allows the polkit rules to go in
/usr/local/etc/polkit-1/rules.d:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/433951

Yes my patch also includes the 50-shutdown.rules file which allows users in a
graphical session to shutdown if they are a member of the operators group. It
is my understanding that without this file, users in the operators group cannot
shutdown the PC using the graphical interface, but could open a terminal and
successfully use the shutdown(8) command. I see no reason to allow something on
the console but not graphically, so I included it by default to improve the
desktop experience.
