As for native support on a cell phone, hell no. I don't want buffer overflow, memory leak, memory invaid reuse, and all sorts of weird crashs on my cell phone. Hell, I want IE to be managed as well.
You can get memory leaks with managed code too. And a managed IE would mean you couldn't have things like JIT Javascript compilation (because that requires the ability to manage memory pages and their permission flags directly).
I agree with your sentiment though, perhaps "native" developers need to undergo additional processes to ensure quality (such as an increased per-app submission fee to pay for extra scrutiny).
