I just don't have time for this - I barely have enough time to get the Open Source project I'm working on where it needs to be. It's a hassle that can be easily avoided - something tells me that *one* application that captures log output, and which has to be specifically installed on a device, won't be a security problem, or at least will significantly alleviate it. And if Google wants to release it, I'm sure they have enough manpower to make it happen. Or, oh horror, we can get a mechanism to selectively grant permissions (which has been an outstanding issue for quite a while now, with no resolution in sight). Can *I* do it? I think I probably can, though it is a major hassle and loss of time, 'cause this is just not what I normally do. Can a newbie do it? Well, I guess that'll be a showstopper for quite a lot of them. This issue is an obstacle - as usual, there's a tradeoff between security and convenience. It's just it's too skewed away from convenience this time.
