Is there a reason TextMate copies mate into the user's $PATH instead of

just making a symlink to the command inside the Application's resources?

Yeah, I was about to ask the same :)

...

What dangers do I run if I do decide to symlink it? (As part of a system

configuration bootstrap script. I could copy it, but it would be a little more work.)

Well I have it symlinked anyway (rather than copied using Preferences) and it works like a charm for long time already.
