The steps you proposed work.

While we are at this, I would also like to add an alias or symlink to 
/Applications as many other software 
companies/developers do.

The following change to the make file is a step in the right direction (issue 
with change after diff):
shaun-mcdonalds-computer:~/ooo-build/buildbot/buildbot-source/bin/buildbot_ooo/MacBookEdin/
build/instsetoo_native/util ooobuild$ cvs diff makefile.mk 
Index: makefile.mk

> $(@:b))$/staging$/
Applications

There however is one problem with it, and that is the positioning of the 
symbolic link that is 
dynamically generated. My initial test has shown that the symbolic link will 
show up in it's own position, 
rather than the position set in the .DS_Store file. There is another option 
here and that is the size of the 
window be increased (primarily in the height) and the background image be 
modified, thus making the 
symbolic link appear in the correct place.

To sum up, to simply moving the location of the .app, will work no problem and 
can be done easily. 
However to add the link to the Applications folder will require more work.
