The Geolocation API does not leave the page entirely unaware of the permission status. It has a PositionError with a code that can have the value PERMISSION_DENIED:
http://www.w3.org/TR/geolocation-API/#permission_denied_error

I would agree that determining the status using the Geolocation API is harder though. Some rephrasing in section 3 seems appropriate.
