You mean by "bundled" that it is installed in a .app directory
structure, right?

I think it is intentional to at least provide a symlink (or wrapper that
calls open /path/too/My.app) in usr/bin to the app like it would be
available on Linux, but there is nothing against building the bundles if
that actually makes it work right.

This may be very well indeed the problem.  If you have ideas on how to
improve them, please share them.
