Given no one has tried answering this I would either assume sandboxed settings 
aren’t different or people who know if they are different aren’t following the 
list anymore. 

It doesn’t seem all that bad an idea to me. With applications getting more 
complex having different possible settings for some of these properties could 
make sense. Say signed and sandboxed versus not MAS targeted could have 
different user.dir settings. 

Meanwhile, since I am not currently MAS targeted I will see what I can do with 
Application Support, although that is really not all that different from using 
user.home/user.dir. 

javapackager user.dir I think had user.dir set to the app path itself. Useful 
for read access of your own app files, but not for storing data assuming you 
are in the Application directory with no write permissions. Again since the 
Apple jvm’s (user.dir was always the app's directory as I remember) I think 
this setting has changed a couple of times. javapackager may of changed again I 
vaguely remember.

My last couple tries with javapackager didn’t successfully get me valid 
application bundles at all, but it wasn’t anything I needed critically.   

I will take a look at your links.

Thanks.
