Certainly. However, the fact that it happened at all must have been a major embarrassment. Checking that a connection has succeeded and taking appropriate action (allowing access, in this case) if it hasn't, is fundamental functionality in any application that does network communications.
EDIT: Hmmm, simply allowing access may be too exploitable.
