Panther + Applescript + Terminal .term files = :(

I have found a bug, and I was wondering if anyone here had a suggestion to
work around it (I passed it along to apple the the ways I knew to, but if
any of you have other ways to share the info, I would like to hear).

Normaly you can save a window from terminal, and it will create a .term
file that remembers where the window was and what its settings were. You
can double click on that term file and get your window back. That works
most of the time in OS X 10.3, but not if you use applescript to do things
in terminal.

If you touch Terminal at all with applescript, the .term files will no
longer open by double clicking them or dragging them to the terminal
application. You have to quit and relauch Terminal in order to be able to
open .term files.

You can still open the .term files by selecting "open" under the file menu
of terminal. But the dictionary for Terminal does not have an "open"
command in the dictionary.

Thoughts?
