Removing android permissions

Hi, :sign0085:

I've got a question about removing permissions and would be grateful for any help. Basically, I'm using a webview but don't want to access the internet as I'm using a locally stored file in my assets folder.

I tried removing the permissions tags from core.xml, but that didn't work. I ended up with a manifest that had a 'uses permission' line but with an empty name. That really confused the market uploader, as it kept giving errors that it couldn't find android:name in the apk.

As editing the manifest file doesn't work (because it's rewritten each time I compile), can I ask if anyone knows how to remove permissions?

As a feature suggestion, it would be very nice to have a permissions filter in the project menu, to specify which permissions required by libraries need to be included in the manifest.

Many thanks,

Andrew.
