Yes, it needs some work. The NS variant does not use the dumped image inside its application bundle although this image is installed there:

If Emacs.pdmp in /usr/local tree it is used from there. If it's not there Emacs loads a lot of ELisp files before it opens any frame and obviously never uses Contents/MacOS/libexec/Emacs.pdmp or ./libexec/Emacs.pdmp, relative to the executable.

Besides, GNU Emacs 28.0.90 will become after changes version 28.1 and be released. Then I would need to install "them", the NS variant and the X11 client. I am just testing this.
