I have a vague recollection that Chris Nebel stated that they had done

recollection is vague - I don't know for certain that 1) Chris said just
that, and 2) it's true in all regards.

I just tried a simple script that asks Entourage for its name. Repeating 500
times takes about 9 seconds from the system script menu; repeating 10000
times from the app's script menu takes about 2 seconds. That's a very
artificial test, but it shows there's a big potential gap.



Hello


Of course, the test with the application's script menu was done under Panther.
If the one with the system's script menu was also under Panther, one may hope that it run faster under Tiger due to enhancements described in

On the other hand, I assume that the removing of the shortcut convention may be due to potential conflicts with the scripts's shortcuts and the applications's ones in a system menu. In an application menu, we have to take care of the app's own shortcuts.
In a system one, we have to deall with every apps shortcut which may become a nightmare.
