--------------------------------+--------------------
 To properly set expectations for users, when the WordPress install is a
 Multisite install, and the current user has roles on multiple blogs,
 display an extra blurb on the authorization flow and application passwords
 section of the user profile screen saying something to the effect of:

 > Application Passwords will also grant the application access the other
 {$num_blogs} blogs that you have permissions on.

 (along with possibly listing them if it's a short list, or a link to a
 page in the user dashboard or multisite dashboard listing the user's
 blogs)

 As we'd be displaying it in two places, I'm unsure if it would be worth
 abstracting to a function or just inlining it both places.

 For future v2 buildout, as we're looking at adding additional ability to
 scope application passwords access, being able to limit the sites they are
 used on may be worth including in that addition.

 Props @spacedmonkey for asking multisite related questions that made me
 think of this.
