I got the feeling that it might make sense to think about this and maybe

It seems like the only security issues are those that would say we shouldn't
ship Unity 7 at all :-) So supporting Click there doesn't add or subtract.
I disagree. Click packages by themselves could be supported, sure. It is the
unreviewed code in the appstore that is the problem. I think it would be unwise
to let desktop users install arbitrary code on their systems via click packages
from the appstore without display server mediation.
What's your take on this? Does anyone have click-packages-on-the-Desktop
as a strict requirement? Does anyone feel strongly about supporting this
(apart from a testing standpoint for app developers)?
I think that we should support Ubuntu as a converged platform.
Yes, me too, but only when it is actually converged or when we can properly
support it when we are not yet converged.
