I've got no problems with Apple's new policy (if that's what it is), it will probably improve the quality of the AppStore.
I have, however, got plenty of issues with the way they do this. Any business that wants to keep sweet with their developers would do the following;
1) Publish rules of how the appstore works.
2) If they need to make a change, publish it in advance and give people notice time.
3) Make the change.
4) Rinse, repeat.
It's not rocket science, just good developer relations.
Pulling the rug from under people, even if some have been gaming the system, just creates annoyance.
To give you an example, our latest app went live last week. If we had known this was coming, we could have waited and benefited from the increased exposure that new apps now get (although we think we got some benefit from the ranking glitch).
