Actually you don't - the permission is "modify global system settings" and you don't know which ones. If the API was specific about which settings it was going to change, and if you could choose not to accept some of the permissions it needs, that would be my ideal situation. It's no extra work to check in the code whether the app has the required permission because you should have already done that.
