I agree. I wish Android had denial or "spoofing" of permissions in stock form.
I do appreciate that Android points out even smaller details, however: "access to your contacts" is one that works without prompting on iOS, if I remember correctly.
It'd be nice if users could choose both the level of detail and choose piecemeal.
Obviously, we'll never see it in stock/vanilla, but there is something to be said for the fact that you do spoofing at all via pdroid, which takes less than half an hour to set up if you're of the hacker persuasion. I dreamt of such a security setup for two decades before android ever came to be.
