I seem to remember this as a regression it happened before. Strange since every occurrence of DMGSetup.scpt I can find looks like it handles the Application folder alias the same way.

I think maybe Andy Herrick came up with some sort of fix?  I may not be remembering that right.

I was looking at the script for how it handles additional files added to the dmg. This was I think an enhancement request of mine and it works fine but I think it could maybe look a bit better.
I was looking to see what any other dmg’s I have do to handle this. Not many do. But those usually seem to use a smaller background image and icons. 
I may look at that to see if I can manage something like that.

In doing that I noticed that a couple of the JavaFX SceneBuilder dmg’s I have show the same /Application. So they demonstrate it.
