Move the new copy of OmniWeb from the disk image to the location of your old version.
But that's not the whole thuth, ist it? At some point the older version has to quit and the new one has to start. Where do these events fit in?

I tried to process the update manually:
1. downloaded the update from the website
2. mounted the image
3. quit the old version
4. renamed the old version to someting else
5. moved the old, renamed version to the trash
6. copied the new version from the image to /Applications
7. started the new version by double-clicking it
No problems with this course of action, no need to authenticate.

This setting must have gone overboard at some point, I restored it and it is working now.
