==Introduction==
The open web application security and privacy model spans a wide variety of use cases, from typical web content to system-critical applications. As such, a one-size-fits-all security model won't work. Instead we need a range of options that balance out the flexibility and common design patterns for web applications while mitigating the additional risks that come with exposing sensitive APIs. Additionally, providing users as-necessary insight into app use of their data helps them make more informed risk/reward decisions as they install apps and grant permissions.
