Comment:

 My machine is so old and slow that this still causes problems.  Double
 clicking does indeed work to start Sage (as it has for a while) but I have
 no fewer than three open tabs for it.
  * One asking to sign in, with a redirect to loading the worksheet (of
 course I have no idea what my login is! blanks, admin/sage, admin/admin
 all don't work)
  * One asking to sign in, with the "startup_token" thing for logging in,
 perhaps, but it didn't log in yet
  * One with a list of my active worksheets (!)

 Once I am actually already started, it does upload as promised!  I think
 maybe you can add something to the README for the Mac app that says "user
 beware" on very old systems with little RAM and/or 10.4/10.5 and/or PPC,
 and I would be satisfied.

 I think we ''do'' need someone to make sure it at least bdists and starts
 correctly on 10.8.  John, would you be willing to do the following?
  * Add these patches to the extcode repo (data/sage/ext, I think)
  * {{{export SAGE_APP_BUNDLE=yes}}}
  * {{{./sage -bdist Sage-testing-doubleclick}}}
  * Wait
  * Move the bdist app somewhere and use it to double click an sws file
 We just need to make sure this doesn't break something horribly.
