Replying to [comment:8 iandrus]:
> Could we perhaps always name the volume the same thing, and change the
name of the dmg file?
Yes, but then we also need to stick to the same name for the .app
directory in the dmg file (which is what SnapPy does) because the icon
positions stored in the .DT_store are keyed by file name. Right now, it is
named Sage-VERSION.app, so it is changing.
And I would like to keep the .app name as is including the version number,
especially since once it is installed, a user cannot change the name, so
cannot keep an old version while installing a new version.
