2. AppleScript is based on Apple Events. Therefore dropping down to the AE level won't help if conclusion number one is correct.

Yes, but there's also the option to "drop" to Accessibility calls. GUI scripting (look at the System Events dictionary Processes Suite) is based on the Accessibility interfaces. Another alternative is to use ScriptingBridge <http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ScriptingBridgeConcepts/ > because then it's possible to use C/C++/Objective-C for accessing a scriptable application in those languages and mix in Accessibility calls.
