Wondering if you folks have tried using the `v3-create-app` command as Mike has pointed out (and Zach elsewhere). The command is basically the equivalent of `cf push test --no-start` in that it creates an app, leaves it in a `stopped` state, and users can then apply configurations, bind services, set-groups, enable ssh, etc. This command appears to be a workaround for your use cases, but please let us know if that's incorrect.
