>Security of my calculator..?
I could upload a "Calculator" application that looks harmless, and even functions as a calculator, but actually steals your GPG keys and logs keyboard input. With a sandbox this would not be possible (in theory).
A "calculator" app isn't really unique here, it can be malicious just as well as anything else could be.
You do not want "apps" to be able to do this at all!
A calculator shouldn't really have access to many things anyways, ideally only access to things it requires to function.
