Well, the rankings are clearly personal.
For me: I have no stay-open scripts, and haven't in the past except for
toys. I don't do CGI, and if I did I wouldn't use AppleScript (I'd use
Frontier on Max OS 9 or down; Unix-style on Mac OS X (and yes, I know how
early Chuck Shotten was in web servers [overall...not just Mac] and CGI)).
So...my gradings differ from Jeff's but do not invalidate them.
Official 1.7--->1.6 instructions seem a good idea; and Jeff makes clear
than an official answer on 1.7 with 1.6 Standard Additions would also be a
good idea.
