In PhotoShop 6.x, you can save actions as stand-alone scripts (create the
action, then with it selected, go File->Automate->Create Droplet... ). This
will create a stand-alone application that triggers photoshop to do whatever
the action defined it to do. So, a simple example, convert RGB to CMYK,
create an action that does it, then save it as a droplet. Now create another
that sharpens and save it too. Having done that, you can create an
applescript that launches those applications (droplets) in whatever order you
please, recursively, etc.
Theoretically, if you created an action droplet for each command in
photoshop, you could use applescript to handle anything the program could do.
But I digress, and I agree that integrating full AppleScript support would
benefit us, the users (anyone listening from Adobe?).
