I agree with your breakdown of options in order of sanity, Braden :) Ideally this should be owned by the organization that owns the code: the Apache Cordova Project. While an acceptable second would be for the Adobe Cordova Team to publish it, I think there is a precedent for an Apache project owning and managing an appstore account.
