Mika and dougt think we should add a confirmation dialog beyond the user checks the geolocation sharing checkbox. With a dialog, we could shorten the menu item name and move the more detailed feature description to the dialog. It also makes geolocation sharing opt-in more explicit than just a checkbox.
Can I get some more detailed rationale for this please? It feels to me like between the description in settings and the information being provided in the "learn more" page, we are already going quite a long way in explaining this pref to users.
