Description

If we discovered an app had a critical issue or vulnerability, should we be able to pull a release from the repo so additional users won't get the update until the next release?

I do know that won't help anyone who'd already downloaded the update, but trying to think ahead here in a worst-case scenario where something got through our review process.

Research direction

Start by reading the appcenter-dashboard repository description and its AppCenter publishing entry points. Clarify whether a published release can be withdrawn and what repository or AppCenter state should change; done requires an agreed design and a documented way to prevent further users from receiving the affected release.
