Hi all, I've recently been prototyping a new homescreen, and I wanted to make it a privileged app if possible. As the homescreen is the primary interface to access bookmarks since 2.1, it is basically impossible to write an adequate homescreen unless you're a certified app.
Long-term, we want to move away from data-stores, but I suggest that short-term, read-only access should be allowed for privileged apps. This would allow third party homescreens to work well (there are already web-activities for saving/editing and removing bookmarks) and I don't think it would encourage the use of the API (as you can't write or create your own data-stores). Does anyone have any thoughts or objections on this? If we're allowing third party homescreens, this seems like a blocker to me. Cheers, --Chris
