[wp-hackers] easy way to request ftp credentials and use them, when directory to write is not writable?..

[Davit Barbakadze]

Plugins usually request ftp credentials when they are not able to
install themselves directly. Is there an easy way to leverage the same
ftp credentials dialog in plugin/theme cases, when there's a necessity
for example to put a file in a directory, which is not writable? Some
Codex page on this maybe?

I thought I'd ask before diving into the code.

Thanks,
