Implement in-app data usage control

[santa4nt]

Instead of relying on the system's data usage control, we should put such an option in the app itself, perhaps even with a more fine-grained control.

Are you referring to data usage as in network data usage where it pulls up the system data usage panel? It could be possible to get bitcoinj to track data usage, but it would likely be a rather major modification. Why is the system data usage panel insufficient?

[santa4nt]

Just a consistency feel. Most apps (e.g. Google apps) use its own data control instead of using the system's, and it can be more granularized (e.g. don't do background sync at all, or only do so on WiFi, etc).
