User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.95 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

OS: OSX v10.11.6
FF: 51.0.1

Requested permission to get user location with navigator.geolocation.getUserPosition(successCallback, errorCallback).


Actual results:

If a users allows or denies permission, the callbacks fire appropriately. If the user selects "Not Now" there is no event, and cannot be handled in any fashion other than a setTimeout.


Expected results:

A user selecting "Not Now" should notify the application of that selection so that the application may proceed. User experience is greatly affected when timeouts are either too short to make a decision (and therefore one is made for them via the error callback), or too long such that if an application requires a decision to be made that the user must wait until the timeout expires.
