Only for as long as you don't move the application bundle
to another machine. It will lose its icon in the process
of doing so (plus some other weird scenarios).

Anyway, I had a bit of a discussion off-list with  j o a r
 on this and he pointed out a few things that led to my
discovering that the opposite of what you say is true (at
least in my environment).

The reference in the plist must have the .icns file
extension (which Xcode doesn't add automatically) or the
icon won't stick with the application when it is moved to
another machine (and the other weird scenarios).

I am still testing this to make sure it's not just an
isolated incident, but at the moment it looks like the
solution is to manually enter the missing ".icns" file
extension into the plist.

thanks to all who have responded
