I submitted my apps before the Nov 1 deadline (now pushed to March), but I'm
not sure what happens after that. Maybe my apps can stay there and be
grandfathered in; but maybe they are removed.
So the answer is no, you can't sandbox any Applescript/ASOC application that
talks to other apps. The communications wall around a sandbox app is pretty
tight and I did not see any entitlements to be able to send Apple events.

There is a reference to temporary entitlements in an article in the September issue of Mac Tech (p. 30) by Boisey Pitre entitled "The Sandman Cometh." Quote, "Such temporary entitlements allow for sending of Apple Events." This may possibly be pertinent to the discussion.
