I remember Google got sued for this once. It was something about linking trademarked names to an ad - Google allowed a competitor to display an ad when someone searched for the trademarked name on Google. They lost the case or settled (can't remember). Perhaps someone should test this on Apple too, by trademarking the app name and defending it in court. Since there's precedent, Apple is likely to settle or lose and payout.
