So, perhaps this is just window dressing, but I wonder if this can be messaged better as "change all XPM icons to nicer formats", "add translated AppData for all apps", etc. It may not make much difference in the end, but it might be read better as "Here's how we can help make your app more awesome by fixing XYZ" as opposed to "We're going to stop showing your app because of XYZ." And, to be fair, I suspect that's what all these upstream bugs are.
