Exactly. And why that may be fine for general-purpose apps (hacking the Dock to look weirder than by default, as in "ClearDock", won't do any real big harm other than possibly crash it), I don't think it's fine for something security-related at all. According to John Gruber, this PA app *is* an APE bundle. That's just, uh, not a good idea.

Next thing you know, they're going to distribute it as a kernel extension (hello Aladdin!).
