So you could easily install a graphical shell that doesn't check that.
heh people probably need to chill out about all this. I got a mechanical engineering student (read: "doesn't understand computers") to play open arena with me the other month dispite all of this. It's just a couple buttons you have to press.
...which makes it all the more annoying for "power users" that there's no simple switch anymore to allow all apps to run without the scare/confirmation popups (there used to be a third option in "Security & Privacy" settings next to "App Store" and "App Store and identified developers" for this).
I use quite a few applications that aren't from the App store. I've had 'App store and identified developers' as my default for ever and I've come across, possibly three? unidentified developers in the last three years. It's not a massive inconvenience and to be honest, I welcome the 'Hmmm - its not signed' pause for thought.
