I think this is an indication that app sandboxing is not good enough. It should be possible for the user to have control over everything necessary. The light that warns that the microphone is being used should also have functionality to disable it and to make the app "Request every time" or "Only when app is fullscreen" or similar. And if that is actually all happening, then sandboxing is working as necessary and therefore there is no actual trust issue, because the user doesn't have to trust the app anyway.
