[gears-users] Triggering the permission dialog...

[Douglas Mayle]

If the user has already clicked deny for Gears, is there any way to  
force the dialog up besides reloading the page?  I tried  
getPermission, but it just returns false without re-prompting.  The  
reason why I ask is that in my application, if the user denies Gears  
(which is used for added functionality) I expose a UI with a dialog  
that explains the benefits of Gears and gives the users the ability to  
click "Enable" to trigger the Gears dialog.  So far, the only way I've  
found this to work is by reloading the page, but then the user could  
lose any unsaved work.  It would be much easier for the user if they  
could bring up the dialog, enable it, and then continue their work.
