How do you specify member permissions using the client interface?

[jnape]

I've been looking through usage examples and the actual code, and I'm not sure how to actually specify which member permissions I need for the endpoint I'm requesting, e.g. /people/~/connections, which requires 'r_network' scope permissions.

Is this a current capability of the system and I'm just not seeing how to do it, or is the library limited to requests that only require r_basicprofile?

Thanks in advance.
