“Hold my beer," - mobile Google Chrome.

Trying to see it from Googles point of view though. Perhaps there is a useful distinction to be made between end-user apps, and apps and functionality targeting developers. There is developer tooling to be found outside the Play store. Far away from the general audience and the risk of causing them security issues.

I can't say I agree with it, and Droidscript could well be a godsend to somebody making good use of it.

There should be an avalanche of truly malicious apps and related dev malpractice they could root out from their platform before this.
