Where is the contributed panel? How does it work? Can it mimic the  
way the Apple installer works? i.e. start the install as regular user  
and authenticate when the install scripts requires it? I suspect that  
sudo is a bit narrow as the authentication depends on the security  
policy of the machine you are using.
