I think that we better sacrifice time-to-delivery than sacrifice the
user experience. And yes, I think that OVI could use some more help by
crowd source, there's the champions. I'm sure we could use them to get
better coverage and at least some more widespread usage of an OVI app
before it is published, as is done with other interesting new revamps
with OVI.

I as a champion would be delighted to give feedback and do proactive
testing of new apps on the OVI store before they are released to the
wild, once asked to through the FN contact.
