I see.  Several Google-made applications in the Market request many
signature permissions, and I had assumed Google had some way of
getting these apps signed for the appropriate distribution.  Is that
not the case, then?

I have a few hundred apps and I am trying to do a large-scale
analysis...trying to figure out how to tell whether they can really
use their signature/system permissions a priori, since a lot ask for
them.
