Display dialog + compiled scripts

Hi. OS X question.

Is there an 'approved' way to display dialogs in other apps when using a
utility like DragThing to run a compiled script? I want the dialog to
display in front of other windows (obviously), but don't want to bring
DragThing to the front to display it.

Must the command must always be wrapped in a specific application 'tell'
block directed at the frontmost application? Or is there a way to have the
OS display the message so that it always shows, no matter what app is
frontmost?

Thanks

Nick
