Annotate, or remove books?
I did not consider the former (which is possible, but not expected of a
simple reader), but was thinking of the latter too.
But in that case, why would it need access to the *whole* shared storage,
and not an app-specific data subfolder ?
... I just realized I should also take a peek at what the Graphene OS
considers to be "shared storage", and how it (possibly) can help curb
over-zealous (or just not quite trusted) apps.
