fingerprint readers itself.

Usernames
</doc:title>
<doc:para>
When a username argument is used for a method, a PolicyKit check is done on the
<doc:tt>net.reactivated.fprint.device.setusername</doc:tt> PolicyKit
action to see whether the user the client is running as is allowed to access data from other users.
</doc:para>
<doc:para>
By default, only root is allowed to access fingerprint data for users other than itself. For a normal user,
it is recommended that you use an empty string for the username, which will mean "the client the user is
running as".
