We know the recommended way is to just try an API call which requires the specific permission. Our infrastructure queues all changes to the osm data and works it off later to be independent from OSM API status. But when the job is worked off it is too late to tell the user, that permissions are missing.

Not at the moment, but it would be easy enough to add it to the user 
details API call (/api/0.6/user/details).
