Thanks for the report. There are a couple of other keys (WorkingDirectory, ClassPath, Arguments, Properties) where we replace occurances of $APP_PACKAGE, $JAVAROOT and $HOME, but not (yet) on the VMOptions key.

But I could add this as an enhancement so you would be able to use it as follows:

<key>VMOptions</key>
<array>
  <string>-javaagent:"$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/Loader.jar"</string>
</array>

Not sure yet when to find time for this and for testing... Please give me a few days...

Fixed with cbee3f0

You can use it with my example from above.

Sorry for the huge delay! It has been a tough year for all of us... :-(
