This is LONG overdue and I hope it at least shows users as much info per app as Google Play does where you can inspect the permissions the app requests/requires (though the distinction between request and require would be nice). It would also be nice to have persistent search filters in the app store search like "don't show me any apps which request access to my contacts or location"... though I suspect it will take people dying because their stalkers found them through an app's location info for this to happen.

This is about data that is collected, and how it's used - not app permissions.
