Do you think it might be a good idea to start a similar list, in the
form of a petition to manufacturers, for end users?  The hope would be
that the number of petitioners grow big enough to let us effectively
rebut the argument that nobody outside the developer community really
cares.

(Of course, the best way to rebut that argument would be for end-users
to vote with their feet, but for a lot of us, me included, that's not a
practical option.)
