There's another side-effect of use of "test-keys".
It's used as a common test for a rooted device. This means that apps that test for rooted devices will find a false positive where a Custom ROM has been installed.
This screws Flixster, FoxDigitalCopy, and the UK-based Blinkbox, Sky Go and 4oD TV streaming services.
If there was a neat way to replace "test-keys" with something else, this would enable the use of these apps on non-rooted custom ROMs.
