One possible work-around in B is to
tell application "A" to display dialog ...
This puts a dialog in front of A which prevents the user from clicking in A ... A just beeps. Unfortunately, (1) the dialog has a button which the user CAN click and (2) the dialog has a button which the user MUST click.

So, a solution could be to use the new floating palette of Smile as your B, which will tell the user "Please don't quit A now, work in progress ..." while B runs and which will go away when B is finished.


Indeed, you can now distribute stand-alone Smile dialogs which will run transparently for the user.

This is documented at:
