> One thing that's kind of odd about third party modules for scripting
languages is that OS X includes them in the distribution for shell script
languages (/Library/Internet Plug-ins, /Library/Perl, /Library/ Java, etc.) but
not for AppleScript. I think it would be nice to have some vetted osaxen in
/Library/ScriptingAdditions. The facilities that Apple has available permit them
to scan code to see if it's going to make any suspicious calls or write to
verboten areas.
I'm not sure how many third party OSAX would pass muster. Especially those
that disregard basic language features and mash nouns and verbs together to
form a single command.
