Submit bugs!
I've submitted one on how sandboxing thoroughly breaks "do shell script".
But if you don't submit the bugs, then it's kind of hard for the
AppleScript team to get leverage to make sure things work. "No one's
having problems, see? No bugs."
Stupid or not, it's how the system works. Submit bugs. Submit many bugs.
Make USEFUL noise.
