Title:
  Allow reviewers to change technical details after an app is published

Status in Developer registration portal:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Following up on the discussion on bug 1081504, my understanding is
  that when an app is published for a given release, the first time it
  is published for another release there needs to be a manual step in
  the admin UI to fix/add the new distro series. Without this step,
  which can only be performed by an admin, metadata such as the app's
  icon and screenshots is not present on apps.ubuntu.com and upon local
  installation by the Software Center.

  This affects both commercial and Open Source apps, and it is due to
  the fact that the technical details of an app (package name, distro
  series, etc.) cannot be changed by reviewers once an app has been
  published.

  So the purpose of this bug is to suggest making these details editable
  by reviewers even after an app has been published.
