Google's Quality Score To Impact Ads on Content Network (AdSense)

A WebmasterWorld thread asks if site targeted campaigns via AdSense are affected by Google's quality score? Most say they are unsure, but AdWordsAdvisor2 comes in to basically say yes.

We are slowly integrating a Quality Score component to ads showing on the Content Network. The performance of ads on the network will now impact how often and where they are shown in the future.

Now, does this mean that AdSense ads, any type, until recently, were not impacted by the quality score? I thought that a couple of months ago, the quality score did begin having an impact on AdSense ads. I guess this is a more recent phenomenon...
