Richard, do you realize how you sound like? "Nice application you have there, would be a shame if something would... happen to it."
Imho it's a matter of respect to discuss a standard beforehand with a community. And this threat to exclude apps, well... Also, using this as a sign of quality is not really helpful. Something like counting the commits in the last x months would be much more significant. Personally, I think it's a good idea to have something like AppData, but as a way to let an application present itself, not as something applications are forced to use.
