Well that depends what you define the host problem to be

End users can certainly run Clojure programs natively without having the JVM installed on their machine

You can do that without Graal using jpackage. The only boon of Graal is native binaries and interop. But if you want to ship the JVM the user doesn't need it installed.

I wonder if native apps built with Graal or jpackage could be accepted at the Apple macOS and Windows app stores?

Graal probably. Apple seems to not like JITs so shipping the JVM might be out of the question.
