Throw your sense of right and wrong about it out the window.
Daddy's little girl is daddy's little girl, and having good relations with your father in law is a nice thing to have.
I never asked permission per say but at some get together I took him aside and told him I got her an engagement ring. We didn't have a lot of time to talk and he just smiled his assent, said ok and that was all that was needed (we had been dating a LONG time by that point).
Now its not so much asking permission as showing you value his relationship with his daughter and value his opinion. Worry about him saying no only if he in fact says no. Maybe he has some concerns you can talk about, maybe he just wants to give you advice, maybe he will say 'about damn time' but why risk starting off a marriage on the wrong foot with your father in law?
