Well, it is a short but efficient code. Why WP don't include this option in settings (like editor).

Replying to DD32:
This would be due to the Flash uploader not supporting .htaccess password protection.
AFAIK, Unless there has been a change in the SwfUploader package, the only way currently is to disable the flash uploader via a plugin: http://trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/6406/no-flash-uploader.php?format=raw
