IIRC Dominik wanted to slowly replace the caps with permissions anyway,
the caps are just (still) there because that hasn't happened yet.
I am also not sure whether tokens are a good fit for the regular Web GUI
- the fact that tickets expire and you are not permanently logged in is
a feature there IMHO ;)
also, permissions has a return schema already, while it does 'match'
from a structural point of view (a two-level deep hash), it is something
altogether different semantically.
TL;DR: iff we really need this, then I'd put it in a separate API call.
