I highly doubt they actually check any of the poo poo coming in. It just means you can't distribute to users without having them in Developer mode.

It just means you can't distribute to users without having them in Developer mode. they do check, and even if you publish a unlisted extension for your own use (if you have a google apps account) it will take like half hour or an hour for it to actually be available as it runs its various checks, it used to be instant before.
