I'm just wondering about these security issues, injecting events, access to
some low level APIs, screen lock, telephony, etc. I've been developing on
other mobile operating systems for years and all them allow this kind of
technique, it's valuable for some kind of applications, mainly in corporate
applications where the company wants the user with no access to phone
features like downloads, games, etc, but only a limited set of features.

My question is, would you consider adding all this 'privileged' APIs to the
security in the manifest, with a 'red' level of alert to the user upon
installation, with description of the potential risks, so that user can
decide?

I know Android core developers said they don't want user to decide, but in
my oppinion it is really what should happen.

Just my thought.
