In my opinion, "app store" is name which carries in confusion. "app store" provide "widgets" very closed and nothing like a real "app" (LibreOffice, Firefox, Joomla...). These widgets are very specialised and sounds like bubbleware for small paying pigs. Why using 100 apps for doing something that 1 browser can doing ? "App store" is lineal heir to french "3615 Minitel". I do not wish, in no way, that "app store" appears in the vocabulary of Debian.
