Hi! I'm positive that it is. It wouldn't be beneficial whatsoever to remove all hotkey functionality from App Store Applications, and the article was even updated to say that they will not be rejecting them. Also, if that was the case, I'm sure it would have been submitted to developers to prepare them for the change. In the passed, Apple has always posted to the developer list of huge changes like these, and there has not been such a post. Similarly, the submission guidelines do not contain a mention of this.
It's also worth mentioning that if Apple did make this change directly on June 1 without notifying developers, the App Store would be wiped of apps for at least a short time. I don't see how this would be beneficial, since at least the majority of applications most like contain hotkeys.
