Back on the topic, I'd like to see "path to home from user domain" added
to the options in the path to command for OS X

"path to desktop from user domain" yields :
"<Boot Volume>:Users:<current user name>:Desktop:"

I'd like to be able to directly get :
"<Boot Volume>:Users:<current user name>:"

You've had the power to go home all along! Just say...

path to "root" from user domain

"path to" will accept any four-character string and use it as a FindFolder selector, even if there isn't a proper AppleScript enumeration for it (yet). For a complete list of selectors, look in Folders.h in my iDisk.
