That's what I do and it seems to work pretty well. Granted, it doesn't conform 100% to the Mac UI standards, but at least it works well. I would be interested in hearing about your experiences if you try this. Few people have tried all the combinations of Gnucash versions and operating systems.

separate download, which one then opens in an X11 window.
