appdb needs to allow untested applications sometimes

[Chris Morgan]

What would the purpose of having untested applications in the appdb
be? Users would search for the app and find that it shows up but then
find that it doens't work. I'd prefer we simply left out untested
applications to keep the signal-to-noise ratio high.
