that is a reason for asking for the root password , everything else is
nothing but a security hole if a non root user can set system

Yeah, it's probably a good idea to ask for an administrator to
authenticate to do this. With mainline Fedora this would be asking for
the root password; for other spins it might asking a user in e.g.
'wheel' to authenticate.
