I am sure the idea of disabling the app stores in Australia has been discussed! I don't think they'll want to pull out of the Australian market, but I do expect some kind of childish backlash.
I doubt they would risk pulling out of the market even if they threaten to! A userbase of potentially 20m people would give any startup phone/ phone OS company a real edge in the market I'd think. They'll huff and puff but will always comply because the risk is greater than putting up with changes.
