Since target directory shown by apple script is only a suggestion, and user can 
drag app to anywhere in finder, I may be able to be convinced to ignore 
install-dir on dmg builds.
I don't think we should use Log.info() to say given install-dir is ignored, it 
should just be Log.verbose(). (I started the bad precedence when I used 
Log.info for messages about foreign app-image, this should have been 
Log.verbose() too).
