OK so the answer to "does Dropbox add extended attributes" was obviously a resounding "yes".
So I copied my structure, plug-ins and components into my local user folder, ditched the extended attributes using "xattr -cr <pathtoapp>" and re-built. Then I ran "xattr -lr <pathtoapp>" to see what I was left with. I got hundreds of lines like this: <pathtoapp>/Contents/Native Components/Zip.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Zip: com.apple.quarantine: 0183;5a22ef6f;Safari;47E0A42C-D852-441A-942E-0CDE9C6157D4 referencing loads of different files in the package and all relating to com.apple.quarantine. I tried signing it regardless and got this (again): <pathtoapp>: code object is not signed at all In subcomponent: <pathtoapp>/Contents/MacOS/HelperTool Help!
