  Support for apps which do not automatically connect to slots

Status in gnome-software source package in Bionic:

Bug description:
  With the addition of new interfaces there are some plugs which do not
  automatically connect and require action from the user in order to be
  connecte.

  As an example, VLC doesn't not automatically connect to the camera
  interface, but users may want to enable this, or maybe they dont.

  Some design considerations:

   * Do we want to ask users to toggle on/off connections they do/do not
  want.  i.e. a list of toggle buttons (what effect would this have on
  the application, would it fail gracefully or just not work (in which
  case the user could be made aware that it won't work without the
  permissions).

  vs

   * Do we want just a single Yes/No question where it's all the
  connections or none.
