The tricky bit is that there's more than one scripting additions folder. (This is actually a feature, but it tends to throw people for a loop at first.) In fact, there are three:

/System/Library/ScriptingAdditions
the system-installed stuff. You shouldn't mess with this one.

and note that this is the one returned by

path to scripting additions folder

making that construct close to useless.

i think there should be something like this:

path to user's scripting additions folder
path to machine's scripting additions folder
path to system's scripting additions folder
path to network's scripting additions folder

(this could extend to the other standard folders too.)
