Good thinking. I used to use a similiar arrangement to handle the several
third-party OSAXen on my OS 8.6 machine. The effect on non-vanilla
commands was immediate, but a restart was necessary to disable "Jon's
Coercions". (That no longer seems to be the case, but it is necessary to
quit Script Editor and relaunch it if it's open when "Jon's" is moved.)
