I have removed this tool, and restarted hal, but I'm still prompted for 
my password when I plug in my printer :-(

What I get is a prompt for my root password coming from command 
"gnome-cups-add". I think I'll open a bugzilla for this.

It is also a usability issue, it is not correct to be prompted for the 
root password whiteout option to say never again, and for an already 
configured printer.
