Won't a catalog or showcase site do? What if I want to make a mac or windows app that uses the LeapMotion controller if available, and dumbs down to the trackpad if not? i.e. the focus is not on the controller itself, but on the task I wish to achieve through it?

That can happen if they, for example, won't license their SDK to be bundled as APIs for "Chrome packaged apps". If they did, there may not be an incentive to have your app live on their app store. I don't at the moment know what's in their SDKs, but setting up an app store can introduce such (imho artificial) conflicts of interest.
OTOH, it's their product and they may very well say "it's exclusive, folks". The irony is that I'm a bit pissed because I want this bad .. and without those ropes! Hope I'm not required to put apps on their store. Furthermore, I hope Wacom doesn't catch on to this trend and start a "Wacom App Store" as well.
