I really like that idea.  That could be a standard part of EVERY
installed app (outside of trusted OpenMoko apps).  Just one more step in
helping users not shoot themselves in the foot.

In combination of what was said before - the virus scanner - we could
maybe use a database of application hashes, so not every app has to be
configurated but only those that are not found in the database, maybe
this will bring some focus to security to the average user, since not
every app goes along with a warning.
If there are too many warnings user tend to grant any right to any app.
