Title:
  complete scope "messaging" implementation

Status in The Savilerow project:
  New
Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Scopes sometimes need to provide a message to a user. Well known cases include:
  * Hey, turn your network on! 
  * Yo, turn on location awareness!

  Currently, such "messaging" is up to the scope implementation and the
  only option for displaying messages is to post them as results in the
  scope itself.

  unity8 and the unity-scopes-shell should provide the ability to
  message the user such well known messages (and probably others), and
  those messages should be translated.

  Perhaps there should also be the ability for the scope to provide the
  translated message text so we can also support scope-specific,
  customized messages.
