[Bug 1419829] Re: Scope location settings are enabled by default

 

We haven't yet completely figured the part of scopes requesting trusted
prompt or rather the dash on behalf of the scopes. There are some
options but those will take a little bit more effort to implement. Also
we need to make sure that we don't break scopes as they currently get
their location as query parameter and not requesting this directly via
location service which usually triggers trusted prompt.

Triggering a trusted prompt for each scope utilizing location means an
avalanche of prompts the phone is used the very first time. Consistent
but probably not best user experience.

Title:
  Scope location settings are enabled by default

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
  New
Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is in contrast to the rest of the system where user have to
  explicitly grant access right upfront.

  Possible solution would be to add a new page in phone setup wizard
  asking for whether scopes are allowed to use location or not and then
  applying this to individual scope location settings.
