Me, too. There are other instances where FOSS is on the store, but not many, 
and I think the others use non-GPL licenses. However, a crucial point is not 
per se the license, I think, though you are correct about the clauses issue 
(not sure how it's resolved here but I don't really want to pressure it), as 
copyright ownership or at least the guarantee (tacit or explicit) that the 
binaries posted are not actually stolen objects.
