Facebook: Is there a way to check that I have certain permissions?

I started developing a Facebook app using the new Graph API.

I want to check if I have certain permissions, (say publish_stream for example) for a certain user. I know that the old REST API had users.hasAppPermission, but I don't see anything parallel to that in the new Graph API.

How can I do this?

+1  A: 

You will need to run FQL on permissions table. If you are using JS SDK you can run it with FB.Data.query().

Does this mean there is currently no way to accomplish this server-side using Graph API?
