First, as far as applescript recording, what are the best applications in OS X for that?

QuickTime Player is the only application that comes with the system that's recordable in any meaningful way. There are a number of recordable third-party applications, as other people have listed. Which would be "best" depends a bit on what you're after. Bear in mind that AppleScript recording does not track users' precise gestures -- it records actions that are meaningful in AppleScript, which means more task-oriented things.

Thirdly, who do I contact at Apple, failing these other two option to attempt to negotiate some type of special dispensation to get access to the unpublished API's for things like Mail, iCal, or Keynote?

Chris Nebel, I'm sure he will respond, is a nice guy with helpful attitudes.

How can I refuse after such an endorsement? :-) Joining the developer program (see <http://www.apple.com/developer>) is probably a good start, but I'm not sure what you're expecting to find. Unpublished APIs are unpublished for a reason -- you'll have to be more specific about what it is you want.
