Permissions Level Changes #17

Auth permission level changes to SDK No milestone No one is assigned Edit Hey SDK team. I noticed that when I gave FB permission to post a comment from the app it only requested the "comment to my wall" level permissions. If we want to get the friend count of a user that has authed but only to that level won't it limit our ability to do so?

I think this is correct, but I think it's not a no big deal, although we may have to make some changes to the SDK.

If we add new permission, the new SDK will know it's the new SDK and know that any stored user credentials will not have these permissions so it needs to re-auth the user. I know for Android that I don't currently store the actual permissions the user has authorized so I would need to add that.

Twitter permissions are controlled by the developer on the Twitter App via the twitter website, so we also may need to handle this somehow.
