WRONG!!
rtkit can be "configured" by using runtime parameters when started.
Sigh, I did not realize that was possible, I should have dived deeper
and/or RTFR (the README, no man page).
Better than nothing but IMHO not a realistic configuration strategy (in
my case it would involve editing the systemd unit that starts the service).
