The permissions system seems to be granular with respect to whatever was selected - if you select a directory you have full access to everything in it. Theoretically the permission system requires explicit approval, but if you see the security system with the user I think it presents more risk to users than before.

Previously if you wanted filesystem control you had to trick a user into downloading something. With this API, it seems like it would be easier to con unsuspecting users into granting permissions they aren't aware they're granting.
