Remember rejecting request for Google Play service's permissions #1417

When we get this popup and tap "Cancel", it would be nice to remember the answer, at least for a short while.

I've observed a banking app showing this popup in an infinite loop (the app seems to actually work fine if I don't give these permissions, it is just annoying to deal with the popup).

If remembering answer is complicated, an alternative could be to just disable these popups, or better yet converting them to a notification with a certain category, which users could block.

Not really possible to do so reasonably.

There is a somewhat straightforward way to implement this.
