In practice, even given something as simple
as twitter's geolocation request I *sometimes* allow it to know where I am
and sometimes don't.

I'm hoping we'll eventually move to a model where users are able to
provide default values for things, e.g. "If anyone asks [about
GeoPositioning], I'm in Paris" (I'm currently sick in HEL, but no one
needs to know that).

That sounds like a pretty cool feature, whoever said that the UA had to tell the truth! :)

It definitely puts the user in control.

There is a Unite application for Opera that does this - http://unite.opera.com/application/701/
