Mac Download Page Needs a WARNING about renaming the QGIS.app.

Downloading and installing the QGIS.app packager onto a Mac with other versions of QGIS.app will cause an automatic rename of QGIS.app to QGIS2.app, QGIS4.app for example. Trying to run any renamed [eg. QGIS2.app] will result in multiple issues including GRASS and SAGA no loading, multiple plugins not loading and throwing errors. Perhaps other issues I attributed to random glitches?

As long as the QGIS.app you are running is NOT RENAMED and STAYS QGIS.app all will be fine once again.

Adding a simple warning about this on the DOWNLOAD page for MAC will help many people with this very simple bug.
