A request to determine whether the user has valid
credentials. This method is used to limit the number of OAuth
popups in the user interface. The user id is inferred from the
API call context.
If the data source has the Google+ authorization type, this
method returns false, as it cannot be determined whether the
credentials are already valid merely based on the user id.
