Thanks, Jacqueline:
All of the comments I got so far are very helpful.

Build the LC app for both platforms, use AppWrapper on the Mac version and kSign on the Windows one. Both utilities are pretty much a one-click event after setup.

You will need to provide identification, proof of business status, and some other paperwork to proove who you are and that you are a legitimate company or developer. They check your credentials, and if you pass muster they issue the developer certificate. You use that with their KSign executable to sign the Windows app.
