@Jim - It would be possible to configure an app to be non-removable by your average user. Of course you can't stop them but AFAIK if the app is installed by the superuser, example the bloatware that comes pre-installed on most devices, then it cannot be uninstalled by anyone except the superuser. Nothing stops the user from rooting the phone and getting rid of it but your average user won't do that (most of the non-dev type android users I know don't even know what root, superuser etc. is. Needless to say the have never used anything except windows.)
