I am wondering what other people think about this workaround.

Use the term within its own tell block; handlers are great for this.

Or possibly, use a one-line, non-block, statement if you can.

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
do this
do that
do something else
tell application "Finder" to do yet another thing
do this again
do the charleston
do something wild
end tell

Is it the right one? Shouldn't we use "System Events" rather than "Finder"? What do you think?

If the term is both in the Finder and System Events, use System Events because subsequent versions of AppleScript might remove them from the Finder.
