Developer ID for digitally signing Apple OSX releases?

[Keith N. McKenna]

With the release of OSX Mountain Lion and its new Gatekeeper feature I 
wanted to ask if any thought had been given by the community of applying 
to Apple for a Developer ID. My limited understanding is that by signing 
the installation files with the Developer ID it automatically unlocks 
the gatekeeper and allows the application to run. Otherwise there is a 
short process that one must go through to change the security settings 
for the application allowing it to open.

Based on a question in the user mailing list I am adding a link to the 
Release Notes in the known problems section on how to make the required 
change.
