Description
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.

Per today's bug scrub, this ticket (now a task) will stay in 5.6 (and after Beta 1 if necessary) as it aims to refine a new feature that has already been merged into trunk.
@georgestephanis and @spacedmonkey - Can you add the exact copy for each location it will be added to this ticket to ensure it is good to go?
Thanks!

@sarahricker Created a github pr for review and discussion. Honestly I'm horrid on verbiage and phrasing, but the context there should be enough for someone better with words for users to make it intelligible. :\

Thanks @georgestephanis, that is perfect! Will take a look. Will try to get it in Beta 1, but if not - Beta 2!

@georgestephanis looks like there are linting failures.

- Keywords needs-refresh added
A couple of notes:
- The strings should use
_n()
instead of__()
here, many languages have more than one plural form. sizeof()
should be replaced withcount()
, see [49193].

Is there a compelling reason why the HTML for this feature does not follow the pattern set by every other user profile feature on this page?
This feature would feel much more complete if it did not look as unique and unfamiliar.
Any objections to reopening & continuing to iterate on this during beta?

@johnjamesjacoby Which aspect of the html do you mean?
And I'm fine with reopening this ticket if it's about the new multisite line specifically, but if it's a grander rearchitecting, may be better to do a new ticket.

I support additional clarity here. Suggest to start by linking to the “My Sites” admin page, and iterate if it is determined to be insufficient.
