I am not sure if it's a standard Android component, and indeed I guess
it's not. Still, the possibility exists. However, other system apps
show the same behavior regarding their packages.xml entries.

Anyway, here's the whole block:

<package name="com.android.filemanager" codePath="/system/app/
FileManager.apk" flags="1" ts="1314087422000" version="1"
userId="10036">
  <sigs count="1">
    <cert index="1"/>
  </sigs>
</package>

I would guess that a file manager would typically at least have
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.


Another example: The Google-provided Youtube app, also a system app as
it's installed in /system/app/:

<package name="com.google.android.youtube" codePath="/system/app/
YouTube.apk" flags="1" ts="1314087422000" version="2106"
userId="10031">
  <sigs count="1">
    <cert index="9"/>
  </sigs>
</package>

No shared user ID, no perms block. Still, I would guess it would need
INTERNET permission.


One last example, which would usually require RECORD_AUDIO permission:

<package name="com.android.soundrecorder" codePath="/system/app/
SoundRecorder.apk" flags="1" ts="1314087422000" version="8"
userId="10043">
  <sigs count="1">
    <cert index="1" key="30..."/>
  </sigs>
</package>
