But this isn't a case of "trusting" the UA - the user may well _want_
the UA to ignore such things. It's the app author who has to trust the
UA; what incentives does the UA author (who responds to the wishes of
the user, right? User control, and all that) have to respect this setting?

If I were writing a UA, and could reliably distinguish between free and
paid apps, I'd certainly ignore this value for free apps. More apps work
in my UA, my users are happier, the app author shouldn't care which site
pointed me at his app, I've installed it just the same way as everyone
else; everyone wins.
