No mention of any level of fine grained app permission control, which was speculated for 5.0. I've been running XPrivacy for months, and while I never expected anything equivalent, I was hoping to see SOMETHING mentioned at the release. As time goes on I just become more fed up with the Android permission approach. The fact that I have to root my phone and install something like XPrivacy to find acceptable middle ground between installing an app with unwarranted permissions and not installing it is infuriating.

I suppose we might find something under the hood once it rolls out, but I see little reason to be optimistic at this point.
