The Firefox Marketplace does the exact same thing. One simply submits a URL, it gets approved, then becomes available. Any changes made afterwards go unnoticed by moderators.

For FirefoxOS "hosted" apps this is true, but they also don't have access to any significant APIs. Only "packaged" apps do.

This is also not true for add-ons (for desktop/mobile or FirefoxOS), these are packaged as zip files and can't be arbitrarily changed.

However, there is the problem however of the app or add-on downloading and running code from the internet unchecked, which is probably intractable to do in an automated way (at least for the current APIs exposed, and for a dynamic language like JS), manual review is required.

Mozilla requires manual review, and Apple disallows interpreters. I'm not sure what if anything Google does about this problem for Android.
