Disable access filters when you do not grant access

Title:
Disable access filters when you do not grant access

Area:
user interface

Summary:
There are both access and subscription filter columns in the "Modify [[username]]'s status in your circle?" It's way too easy to accidentally check the access filters.

Description:
The Dreamwidth separation of access vs. subscriptions is very useful, so the modify status interface should make the same distinction, and separate the filters more clearly.

Presumably, there are users who desperately need to save user names on access filters even without granting them access, and likewise with subscriptions. While I can't think of any reasons, there always are. A checkbox for overriding the default might solve that problem.
