I'm not clear on the specifics, but generally it was due to the same analytics and tracking information we had to adapt the desktop skins to handle, and to handle it would mean having to manually change the code for each app. This is indefinite - they are not coming back to the EU app store.

Yes, the tag will simply fail to be recognized by the end of the week, so I'm fairly confident calling it through that parser function will have the same nulled effect.
