One handy user-friendly feature you get for free when you code-sign your application is much smoother cooperation with the Mac OS firewall (mostly relevant if you accept incoming connections). The system will recognize it as an app it already knows (after the user approved it once). Otherwise your application will trigger the firewall warnings on every launch. When you publish a new version of the application signed with the same certificate (which can be a self-signed certificate BTW) the system will treat it as the same application.
