Yes, I like the -post update idea.

I see Apple getting away from "resource forks" as being a really
good thing. That hold-over from OS9 just did not fit the unix
paradigm at all. That concept never should have been ported to OSX.
The concept of bundles is a clever one, though it's still a bit
poorly implemented. For instance, if the user tries to rename
the bundle, the app will no longer start, because the app's old
name remains hardcoded in the plist files and filenames within.
