It's a recognition that underscores a consensus value in Australia: that people have the right to go about their business as individuals without harassment, abuse or the malicious interference of others.
I would argue that Fitzgerald, far from being "a little camera crazy" in his script for "Infidelity," was finally getting a chance to put his own visual sensibility on paper without the interference of others; too bad he never got the chance to see it on the screen.

However, Godwin's endorsement of both the principle of utility as the sole guide to moral duty and the principle of private judgment as a block on the interference of others, is not without tensions.
Our Supreme Court captured this same meme in 1891, when they wrote: "No right is held more sacred, or is more carefully guarded, by the common law, than the right of every individual to the possession and control of his own person, free from all restraint or interference of others".
The control domain refers to people's needs and abilities actively to control their environments, while autonomy is defined as the right of the individual to be free from unwanted interference of others.
