That would be great.  Thanks, James.

Documenting these things, and things such as local desktop files on
Linux (eg. https://lists.apache.org/thread/2bh3zs0cddgt1ttft6vgjpdg4o8jndjk
) or providing simple scripts to work with the zips are the right way
to handle this in my opinion.

There's a world of difference between what people can and should be
able to flexibly configure on their own machines, vs getting an
installer past Apple's notarization process.

Best wishes,

Neil
