Wait, does this mean that future Photoshops won't be accepted because you can create your own hotkeys?

If Apple's not going to support Classic or Rosetta then they should release them into the public domain with full documentation.
So, I guess someone decided to actually try and confirm this:

This isn't a world-class security feature. I would prefer for Apple to fix the security holes in the operating system, than doing this.
so stupid apple is reducing the functionality f the OS at a tie when we are all getting bored of IOS and want new cool functions and features... typical large corporate attitude..![]()
*bingo*
One can never have too much security, but any hacker finding a way to breach this sandboxing will then be able to go after all of the other holes thanks to the OS maker's laziness and false belief that sandboxing makes for a cozy impenetrable workaround.
Apple has yet to prove to me that they are taking the Mac App Store seriously.
I think I understand this in theory, but do any posters have an actual real-world example of a program they use with this?

If Apple's not going to support Classic or Rosetta then they should release them into the public domain with full documentation. Time for a class action lawsuit and a change of law regarding this issue.
...all I can tell people is that either Apple is unsure of what hotkey functionality is in this case, or something has changed very recently in such a way as to negate what was said previously by Apple.
YEAH!!! EVIL STUPID APPLE.
How DARE they make the OS more secure!
Or do you think that they should simply carve out great big holes in the only security measure (Sandboxing) that is proven effective in fighting malware?
The 99% of us who want a secure system frankly don't give a rat's ass about mildly inconveniencing a few lazy users. Sorry for the devs, but times move on.

Automator is slow as molasses and impractical for setting up global hotkeys. I use Alfred (with PowerPack which you CANNOT get from the App Store) and it's lightening fast.
I just hope to God Apple never forces all 3rd party devs to use the Mac App Store or I will be forced to leave the Mac altogether. And I love my Macs. (Albeit a little less these days since upgrading to Lion.)

I'm not seeing this as a big deal. Power users don't really use the MAS anyway (we all are familiar with non-mas versions of apps having more features than the mas ones..) I see what Apple is trying to do, prevent dumb a$$es from messing up their own computers with malware and shitz. This doesn't affect anyone who knows what they are doing.
Productivity tools like these are for power users; and for them, everything is the same as pre-MAS days. Noobs use the MAS, everyone's happy.
The problem with this model of course is, who gets malware from the MAS anyway? As long as gatekeeper and the like are under user control, all this complaining is pointless IMHO.

IBM owns Rosetta. Not Apple. So good luck in the courts trying to sue Apple for not stealing and giving away somebody else's software. There's probably other code in Classic that is not Apple's, but licensed with limitations as well.
Or were you planning on suing IBM?
Apple needs to return the functionality that existed in previous systems to the OS. New advances should not destroy old functions.
