I want to be able to restore iso without a password

I are always prompted for a password when I restore an iso file using the gnome disk utility.
I don’t think it’s so dangerous, so I’d like to restore without a password. Is it possible?
Is it dangerous to be able to restore without a password?

The danger is that you can restore disk images to any block device, so you could e.g. restore a disk image onto your main hard drive.

But for the record, the way to do this would be using custom polkit rules. I’m admittedly somewhat hesitant to give out too many details for this particular use case though…


I understand why it is limited. I shouldn’t change that setting.
Thank you.
