Yeah, it's not that writing an email app or a notepad is black magic
or so.

no but depend how apple controls the signing of the apps.

I can give you chapter and verse about how Apple control signing of apps
on Macintoshes. Basically, it's nothing you'd hate: apps can have any
number of signatures (including zero) and users tell their computers how
paranoid they should be about applications with no reliable signature.
Signature authorities (people who can authorise people to sign apps) are
not controlled by Apple: they are independent companies which each rely on
their own good reputation.

OK, except you may still need to arrange for the CA's root cert to be stored in Leopard (the equivalent of Tiger's X509Anchors) otherwise it won't really work.

Cheers,

Chris
