Hi Bernhard,

I'm afraid this is known macOS sandboxing behavior. The correct way to fix
this is to provide a dmg instead of a zip file which forces users to move
the app bundle. We should make the macOS-only bundle only available as dmg.
But we can't really do that for the AIO bundle because dmgs are not
supported on Windows/Linux.

I'll take care of the dmg packaging in the next couple of days.

Best,
Fabio
