Seems to me more important to have a set of checkboxes there in order
to DENY the application some of the permissions that it requests. You
should always read through the permissions that the app requests and
ask yourself if it really needs them all. If it asks for more
permissions than it needs in order to accomplish the objective, then
you can assume that it is trying to do something that you don't want
it to be doing and therefore you should not install it.
