Re:How To Cheat On Facebook Apps Permissions

I've had this bug with a facebook app I built.. I thought the flow would be:
- Ask for permission
- Yes? -> Good you're in.
- No? -> Ok, np see you another day, maybe.
But what was happening is there was a third flow..
- Yes (But I don't give you permissions!!).
And that created a nasty bug later on in the app.
I don't think it's a "flaw" because you can accept the first perm. dialog as a user, but deny the second one (Asking for more permission). But, I believe it should be more explicit that developers need to verify permissions on every actions requiring them.
