It's surprising how many people haven't noticed this awesome feature
in CyanogenMod, but check out

Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Application

and you will notice a setting called "Permission management"

Checking that will allow you to revoke specific permissions of a given
app from the Settings > Applications > Manage applications  menu.

Yes it would be nice if this was upstreamed to AOSP, so it would have
a chance of making its way out to the OEMs, but I figure that rooting
is so dead simple these days that anyone who really cares about that
level of granularity will already be running CyanogenMod.
