You can still stay in your "walled garden" by sticking to the App Store (this is very likely what I will do 99% of the time). That solves all of your grievances including your Facebook hypothetical. But yes, it does mean you will need to choose between installing Facebook and using the App Store.

You can also use Apple's favorite response to this: use the browser. Just open up Safari and type in facebook.com. Then you won't need the app and you don't have to leave the App Store!
