If 'friends' is going to be made generally available to untrusted appstore apps, the friends service needs to be modified to use trust-store, like location-service does. Integrating with trust-store means that when an app tries to connect to the friends service over DBus, friends will contact trust-store, the trust-store will prompt the user ("Foo wants to access your friends accounts. Is this ok? Yes|No"), optionally cache the result and return the result to the friends service. In this manner the user is given a contextual prompt at the time of access by the app. Using caching this decision can be remembered the next time. If caching is used, there should be a method to change the decision in settings. Targeting to T-Series for now, since the trust-store is not in a reusable form yet.
