Note: 'choose file' is a call to the Standard Additions scripting addition,
so you don't require the 'tell Finder' block.

Indeed, it's generally a good idea _not_ to put things within a 'tell
Finder' block that don't need to be there, as the Finder can get quite
stroppy about this sort of thing sometimes.
