Complaints about GitHub API

in TOMODO we have web IDE for our developers & since all projects are public, adding GitHub integration seemed obvious.

We wanted to enable all of our developers seamless integration with GitHub . Each project will automatically create public repository @GitHub & updated will be pushed for every release/update.

THIS IS WHERE GitHub FAILS! The permission to create public repository comes together in a bundle with: reading/writing & creating private repository. Which imho is a show stopper! I don't want/need access to my developers private repositories & bundling these permissions together don't make any sense.

So now I am frustrated & thinking if I should give up the GitHub integration or just ask for the extra sensitive permissions that I don't require or want.
