i haven't thought this through or attempted to implement it, but
it would seem that if an "application bundle" could be wrapped
around a script, and if in that bundle were a resource that was a
small applet (for which "path to me" works as expected), then
perhaps the main script could call the applet to reliably get the
location. and application bundles work on Mac OS 9 too, so just
maybe it would be a backwardly compatible, though kludgey,
solution.
Maybe I missed something, but I thought "path to me" works fine for
script applets? Although support for bundled applets sounds nice
(and I thought that's what AppleScript Studio already produces), I
think the problem of getting to resources in applets is a solved
one.
The only remaining issue, AFAIAA, is the need for a way to pass
along the original file location of a script that has been loaded
into memory and run by a process other than the applet that
contains the script.
