And it's like this:  I have a non-airport wifi dongle which is my only working network device. I do not have an additional wired ethernet connection.  I routed the compact adapter (displaying as not connected in Network prefs) through en2 (displaying as active in Network prefs), and can access the App Store.  
No "additional wired ethernet connection at EN0 with the built-in property set is required," simply some clever configuration.

Yes that's a neat trick but beside the point. Of course you can access and use the App store via wireless ethernet.

Disable your wired ethernet in the BIOS and the app store will stop working.

Obviously.

Thought your point was "(The App Store app) will not work with wireless cards that aren't recognized as "Airport"?  

It will work with any compatible wireless card, whether recognized as "Airport" or not.

Perhaps I'm missing your point?

My Linksys (Ralink RT73) USB dongle is of course not recognized as an "Airport," yet I have no problem logging on to the App Store. Simply rerouted the feed through one of my ethernet ports, so it appears to be a hard line, though it's entirely wi-fi.
