In AppCenter, we've been discussing adding a developer page (elementary/appcenter#148) where we show some information about a dev like an avatar, website, contact info, etc. and then all of their apps in the store. While we can currently do some string matching between the RDNNs and/or the developer field on individual apps, it doesn't provide a way to get any more information about the developer.

Would it make sense to have a new top-level developer component in AppStream that could be downloaded and cached alongside the apps' metadata, giving distros, app stores, etc. a place to provide more rich information about the developers behind the apps?
