[Sparkle] Non-Administrators

Guys, I just realized that the whole authentication support thing in  
Sparkle might be kind of dumb. I mean, should we even be bothering  
users who don't have privs to update the apps? Sure, they might have  
the password and could be intentionally running an unprivileged  
account, but that doesn't seem like the common case.

Should I just make it not check for updates unless explicitly told to  
do so if Sparkle doesn't have permission to overwrite the current app?
