In particular, the MAS version of RB App Checker Lite (which is currently in review) will not be allowed to call\u00a0\u00a0<code>spctl<\/code>, as this utility requires special entitlements to work; and the MAS version of RB App Quarantine (also in review), for the same reason, will not clear the quarantine flag.
