When I install and run an application, that has a set of permissions granted, I feel afraid that something bad might happen.
This is the case of an interesting game, and my personal phone. If I grant the permissions, it gets dangerous. If I don't grant the permissions, I don't run the app. Here is the feature wish: I want to use some sort of "sand box", that is completely external to any given application (probably at operation system tier), that can configure for each app a set of permission denials. If I activate the permission denials of the sandbox at a game for instance, the game asked for some permission and the game believes those permissions were granted, so it will be installed. But after the installation, the sandbox will deny selected permissions, so that the game app will not be able to actually do something in the scope of the denied permission. Google and guru's: implement this and get rich ! I considered to implement it myself. I could do. But as I mentioned, this works at operating system tier, and it is quite complex. If Google invites me, I would happily join the team implementing this. But since I have to work, I get busy, so I won´t implement this in near future. That's why I'd rather just report this wish.
