Well, perhaps, but it doesn't work just like that. If I try to drop the
.app file on the dictionary, I get

"Couldn't open the document because the file could not be found"

When I try Open from script editor's file menu, the .app is not present
in the list.

So, I hope this is not the new way.

Any other ideas?
