Is it important to prevent user interaction with applications in addition to the one running the script?

No, of course not. Or only in the rarest of circumstances that does not warrant it as enforced behavior, though if you can add it as a parameter someone will always find a use for it.


So if we changed ‘display alert’ and all the other scripting addition commands that display dialogs to display the dialog within the application running the script instead of the current tell target, that wouldn't be a problem?
