As someone who has had to deal with Apple's notarization process, it is 100% possible to automate both the code signing and notarization but *does* require the $99/year developer account to have the Developer ID installer and application code signing certs.  This is a bargain for code signing BTW - on Windows you have to buy code signing certs from a CA which cost from a little to a lot more, not to mention the hassle of dealing with the CAs who in many cases won't give an individual a code signing cert...

Also, I *think* I've correctly signed and notarized the current 5.3.3 package (worked without security warnings at least), and put it into a ZIP file here:

Michael,

Thank you very much for doing this.  I know that Steve was having problems getting things notified.

I am still running macos 10.14.6, but I think I have run the proper checks and gotten good results.  If you could please take a look at this to confirm that everything is in order --
