While a DMG is nice, a zip file that the user can extract and move the binary to either /Applications or whatever directory they want is sufficient.
I do not know if there is a way to include the CAPS framework in the 2.5 binary. While it would be nice to have, I do not think many Mac users will notice its absence.
Considering where I thought we would be when Troed left the Mac, I think the Mac binary is in good shape.
