I can't believe how many people are stoked about this. If you look at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/auth/scopes, basically apps can do a combination of a) have full control, b) read everything, c) do everything but delete emails, or d) read/write/send drafts.

Granting that level of access with no fine-grained control to 3rd party apps seems insane to me. I predict at least a couple major security incidents in the future.
