(Get the code!)
I recommend we create a hybrid of both strings ie. :
"Authentication Failed. Please check you entered the correct password"
The reason for this being that this message might come up when their is something wring with PolicyKit (ie. the authenetication didn't happen because something is broken). We don't want to tell users/developers/ (most importantly) bug trackers that the issue was the password and not policykit failing. That could lead to many a confused bug report.
However at the same time we also want to be user friendly which is why I feel the hybrid string is better
