Shared Object - Prompt Data Permissions Dialog

Hello,
I'm creating a small app to run from CD-Rom/local installation that will use
multiple shared objects for data storage.  To ensure proper saving without
surprising the user with a permissions dialog unexpectedly, I'd like to request
unlimited data storage on first time app launch - Joey Lott shows how to do
this in the Actionscript Cookbook...
request=mySO.flush(1024 * 500);

My question is, [b]Can I perform this permissions request  with the user a
single time with a generic app SO in global fashion, so that the permissions
would be set for any SOs created during the use of the product (all written to
same SO directory), or do I have to request permissions for each and every SO
created?[/b]  Since the latter would be unacceptable from a UE standpoint, that
means stuffing all app data into a single SO which doesn't seem so great from a
data config perspective...

I really appreciate your attention and help on this!  
Thanks in advance,
-Maura

Hmm.  Experimented a bit and it seems that once the permission is set it
applies to the Flash Player installation globally, and not per SO, not even per
domain...

Or, please correct me if I'm mistaken.
Thanks.
