Couldn't you just copy the applet from your .app bundle to /tmp whenever you run, and delete it when you quit? This way you don't need to worry about permissions (/tmp is guaranteed everyone-readwrite, correct?) Why do you need write access on an applet anyways?
But then the user will be asked for the admin password on every run!
I need write access to the applet only to "setuid root" it. Afterwards, no password is necessary.
