OI Safe's "Allow external access" preference can be set the first time a remote application attempts access

[GoogleCodeExporter]

If the user hasn't explicitly set their preference to disallow/allow
external applications, the first time a remote application requests access,
the user could be prompted for this preference, either in a dedicated view,
or in the passwordsafe login view.

This would be a bit friendlier, and is consistent with the way firefox and
gnome keyring work, I believe.

I forgot to add, this would imply a 3rd value for this field in the database 
besides
allow & disallow, so we might want to change it sooner rather than later.  The 
third
value being "disallow-but-ask" which would be the default.

If they set it explicitly, either through preferences or the aforementioned new 
view,
it would become allow & disallow.

This has been partly implemented (I think by Peli) but the decision is not 
stored, so
might be a little annoying for the user.

Not sure when it was added, but it's in there now.
