Hi Joona,
how about to just allow post-install and pre-uninstall scripts?
Even Nokia allowed them for Harmattan apps in the OVI store... So I
think there should be a way to check the scripts in the QA process to
ensure that the scripts do nothing harmful.
In my wolEj app I used the pre-uninstall script [1] to remove launcher
icons which the user could add as a shortcut to instantly wake up their
favorite machines without opening the app.
Without the script, after the removal of the app the launcher icons
would have stayed there without icon and without any functionality and
the user would have to remove them manually...
Maybe a solution to this could be, to just allow specific commands only
- which could even be provided by the system (eg.
sailfish-generate-icons $APPNAME $SOURCEPATH,
sailfish-remove-launcher-icons $APPNAME, sailfish-cleanup-cache
$APPNAME, sailfish-invoke-as-nemo $PATHTOEXEC, etc.)

PS: Sorry for using this thread for this, but it seems to fit here quite
well :)

In theory you could use that to scale application's SVGs on device to
target pixel ratio as post-install step, unfortunately it is ran as
root and thus cannot be allowed for Store apps. Then you wouldn't need
to hardcode the pixel ratios to build time scripts. I'll dig deeper to
see what we could do there.
