Just found that since Sailfish OS update 1.0.3.8 apps may be given special permission in order to allow/forbid access to certain system objects. That would be nice to be able to view and manage permission from a dedicated UI in Settings. Android currently supports permission management via Xpose modules.

I have too permission problems. If i download something in my Copy android app (dropbox like). It is very hard to even get it to copy to SailfishOS storage (from android storage), because of permissions is not ok.. So, this could be nice to have, but you need to use root access

I expect that to be a system application, and thus, running with higher privileges (or able to escalate if needed). Anyway, there are quite a few ways to achieve that.
