I'd like a way of just being able to say "my app doesn't work at
anything less than X resolution".  I've tested with QVGA and honestly
it's just not worth the effort to recode my apps to work well with
half of the screen resolution.  It's possible, but the end result
wouldn't be something I'd consider to be a usable app.  In fact I find
the Android OS itself pretty much unusable at that resolution - but
maybe I am just spoiled.

I guess I can put in alternate layout resources that say "We don't
support this resolution" - but that's a pretty bad user experience for
somebody who's just excitedly downloaded my app.

I think the Android Market really needs to support specifying the
resolutions and app requires and/or supports.
