Of course, we know who this new rule is aimed at, but nevertheless, several interesting projects will go down as collateral damage. Even if the App Store doesn't enforce this at first, would you spend time and money developing your app in an unsanctioned tool, knowing that it can be pulled off the store at any moment? I would be specially angry if I were one of the Appcelerator guys. They rewrote Titanium for iPhone so instead of using JavaScript on top of WebKit, it used the SDK to create snappy, fully native apps.
