parseAuthorizationArguments makes it impossible to specify custom policy

I want to specify a custom policy to check against in my ->authorize() in a relation manager. 
CreateAction::make('upload')
    ->authorize('createMedia', $this->getOwnerRecord())
    // ...
CreateAction::make('upload')
    ->authorize('createMedia', $this->getOwnerRecord())
    // ...
In the trait CanBeAuthorized the following code is present: 
protected function parseAuthorizationArguments(array $arguments): array
{
    if ($record = $this->getRecord()) {
        array_unshift($arguments, $record);
    } elseif ($model = $this->getModel()) {
        array_unshift($arguments, $model);
    }

    return $arguments;
}
protected function parseAuthorizationArguments(array $arguments): array
{
    if ($record = $this->getRecord()) {
        array_unshift($arguments, $record);
    } elseif ($model = $this->getModel()) {
        array_unshift($arguments, $model);
    }

    return $arguments;
}
This code always prepends the current model class to the arguments array. This causes the passed $this->getOwnerRecord() to be treated as an argument instead of the class to check the policy against. How can I authorize against a policy I choose?
Solution:
We ended up solving this by creating another model which extends media and using that in the relationship.
