Thanks to Adam and everyone else involved for all of those fixes and improvements.   

For anyone on macOS Sequoia (like I am since yesterday), it's now a bit harder to open an application that isn't notarized.  You have to attempt to open the app once, dismiss the dialog, go into Privacy and Security in settings, scroll down to where it says '"eXist-db" was blocked to protect your Mac' and click "Open Anyway."  You can no longer right-click or control-click to get around lack of notarization.

Note that the app *is* signed, just apparently not notarized by Apple.  You can check the signature with:

% codesign -dv --verbose=4 /Applications/eXist-db.app
