Re: osascript - path to me

Maybe I'm missing something but...

It makes no sense for 'me' to refer to anything other than the entity asking the question.

In any nominally English-language syntax 'path to me' should be interpreted as, "What is my corporeal location? Please return this path."

It makes no more sense for 'path to me' to return the path to the program executing the script than it does for 'path to me' to return, "The computer in Bob's room."

What about scripts that haven't been saved? They should receive either an error condition or a null path.
