In this lite/pro conversion scenario, can the user cancel his purchase
of Pro key to revert back to the Lite version (for whatever reason)?
There is a 15 minute window for refunds with the current scheme
(separate Lite / Pro applications) - is there one for in-app purchases?
The middle screenshot here says "This in-app purchase cannot be
refunded", is that always the case for in-app items?

I can't see a nice way to do it. The best way I can think of is to
introduce in-app billing to the Lite version and convert the Pro

would check for existence of this "pro key" app (and validate) if
the in-app-upgrade had not been purchased.
Does that work?
I'm not sure it does, actually. Consider your existing Pro users, most
of whom presumably don't have the Lite version installed. When you
convert Pro into (in your words) "just a marker app", all these users
will lose the functionality until they go download the app formerly
know as Lite. They'll also end up with both items in their app list
unless you go through some shenanigans with hiding the Pro token app;
I say "shenanigans" because you can't afford to hide it for users who
/don't/ have Lite installed. That's a PITA, I know, I've done that
kind of thing. And in any case, you're likely to annoy and confuse a
good percentage of your existing paid users.
