That's where the "prohibitively difficult" part comes in... surely they don't expect every developer on every open source app in the world to have their own app registration/package name for the same app, do they? Feels like an N * M problem, if so.
Get rid of those pesky open source guys, keep the merchants who want $$$ and can pay $ to Google.
They are namespacing, like it or not, and clearly they don't care about open-source that much.
