And that is in no way new with Leopard; that's always been the case
with osascript. I assume it has to do with the fact that the
osascript process doesn't inherit the graphical environment directly
and so would have to jump through many hoops even to figure out
whether or not it's being run on the console, much less to interact
with the framebuffer (or whatever the cool kids are calling those
things these days).
