On what platform are you? Is there no Messenger for it? (Maybe I'm missing the point)

Why should I have 2 crippled apps than one functional. Also one that has degraded functionality. And until android has fake permissions I won't install messenger.

I feel the opposite. Why should I have 1 slow, bogged down app when I can have two fast, functional ones?

Cyanogenmod has Privacy Guard, which is pretty much that.
