Like in title. Modern Android permission system is really annoying. It assumes I do not trust installed apps and I believe was made to promote loose installing of whatever crap like loyalty cards apps, while I only install a couple of trusted apps all from F-Droid. Such module would enable faster installation of the systems and less irritation when I have to give app a permission third time this month (Android now can decide for myself and revoke permission when it thinks it's no longer needed...).

Is there a global switch? I only have the option for disabling this for every app separatly.

There isn't, but you only need it for apps you use like once a year otherwise it doesn't remove permissions.
