[Xquartz-dev] 2.4.0_beta4 and beta5

[Jeremy Huddleston]

Sparkle should give you a button that says "Install and Restart" (or
similar).  Clicking on that should quit X11 (beta4) and start X11
(beta5).  I did notice that clicking on that button doesn't FORCE X11 to
quit because X11 might give you an "are you sure" dialog.  There's
probably a hook somewhere that I can do to cause that "are you sure"
dialog before the install happens.
