I guess yes. Either always warn it doesn’t do anything with a dmg or ignore it 
silently and let them use it if it makes them happy. 
But I still myself don’t see what any directory has to do with a dmg.  You 
don’t install the dmg or the app anywhere? You just put the app into the dmg. 
Or I am still somehow misunderstanding.
