Podman Containers for unpriviledged users

[velezd]

Cockpit version: cockpit-195-1.fc30
OS: Fedora 30
Page: Podman Containers

Start podman button does absolutely nothing for unprivileged users. Looks like it's not connected to any action. It should show some kind of error/warning message, especially because you usually don't need root privileges to use podman.

Steps to reproduce

1. Doesn't matter if the io.podman.socket is listening or not
2. Login to cockpit with "Reuse my password for privileged tasks" unchecked
3. Go to Podman Containers - you will get "Podman Service is Not Active"
4. Click on Start podman - Nothing will happen

Nothing useful in the log
