There's been plenty of complaining about this on the URLMP journal. Here is one reason: The Stpre rather rudely informs current Beta users:

If you want to replace it with this version, move the existing app to the trash.
Yeah, that's right, I have the ßeta version running with not a single problem, but the App Store can't tell the difference between a ßeta and a released version. Nor does the notice remid anyone that all they really have to do is Archive the current version (and probably its prefs) before downloading the new one.
And why is it so difficult for Apple to put the uploading progress bar/indication in the actual Mac App Store?!
Do they really think that everyone keeps the space hogging Dock visible all the time? "Hello! Apple, it's my machine, I paid you well for it..." And why only one download at a time? Have they not heard of multiple connections? [stupid icon goes here!]
At least there will be more visibility for the app (and the developer) this way. It was only after much pleading by users and a healthy recovery from illness that the developer has brought the app into the Intel world. Unfortunate that it must be only on the app store, although many have also pleaded that it still be available at his site. I'm due to pay again, anyway, it has been well worth many, many times it's price for many, many years. It's truly a bargain at several times the price!
And, so far, it has not suffered the fate of 1Passwords 'Safari Extension' debacle.
