[android-developers] Re: PROTECTION_SIGNATURE

"A permission that the system is to grant only if the requesting
application is signed with the same certificate as the application
that declared the permission. If the certificates match, the system
automatically grants the permission without notifying the user or
asking for the user's explicit approval. "

In other words if both apps are signed with the same private key then
the permission can be granted.
