The one thing that tended to sting Android app developers in the past
was when new Android firmware showed up on phones before the SDK got
out (Motorola Droid and Nexus One come to mind): Their apps wouldn't
work but they couldn't fix it.

Also, as in many "one man show open source projects" like MySQL, you
have some proprietary pieces on top of the open source stuff: I
believe Google only grants apps like Google Maps or Gmail are only if
the handset passes some verification test, defined by Google.  That's
probably why Google has two mail apps (one for Gmail and one for the
rest).
