is it not normal and expected that the structure file is read-only,
if inside the application folder?

you can suppress the warning

http://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17/DatabaseData-storage-page.300-3743476.en.html

and you can configure the application to use a "default data" read-only 
placeholder for startup
and use a read-write data file outside the package (e.g. application support)

http://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17/Data-file-management-in-final-applications.300-3743577.en.html

basically, on Mac, you have 2 choices: install in /Applications as read-only or 
install outside /Applications.

of course,
read-only does not mean you can never alter the contents of the app.
otherwise, you won't be able to edit backup.xml which is always inside the 
application (for now).

but the app must launch read-only on its first run.

When I use a zip file to transfer the app, it opens with normally, no "your
structure file is in read only mode" confirm dialog.  I can use a zip
approach, but I a concerned that Apple will block this approach in the
future. The pckg approach should be better, but it seems not to work.
