Received from developer:

"While it may launch on 10.4, we cannot guarantee compatibility for features. Some may or may not work, however none should remotely cause your system to become corrupt. We will post a final version for 10.4 in the near future. We've only just changed the requirements as we're dropping 10.4 shortly."

I had to download the update from here, rather than from within the app itself, a feature I certainly appreciate when it works.

What I found does not apply:

Tools: General: Features: Install Disk Images Preferences Pane
Tools: General: Files & Folders: Extract...
