That's a bit misleading because you've left out most of the answer
you're quoting:
"We haven't wanted to expose android-vnc-viewer to the larger Android
Market audience while it is still changing rapidly with potential
sources of confusion. As we gain more confidence with the state of the
code, we supply a more complete set of features, and we have better
documentation, we will reach a point where it makes sense to put it on
Android Market. (Also, none of us has yet ponied up the $25 to be an
Android Developer :) ) In the meantime we will continue to have
development builds available from time to time here in Google Code."

Jeffrey Sharkey is most definitely a registered Android developer. His
app "CompareEverywhere" is one of the most popular on the Market.

In both of those examples it seems to me that the developers have
decided that those apps are not suitable for primetime, which is
reasonable enough.

You make some interesting points, but without evidence of a need I
would find it difficult to justify the effort involved (in vetting and
monitoring applications, removing spam etc.)
