I've followed your recommendations but now the application opens and blocks the underlying application i wish to operate on.

I've added an lsuielement boolean key to the info.plist as you suggested but the result is the one aforementioned.

I knew there was a reason for using the word "perhaps".

Here is another way to get the frontmost application ...

tell application "System Events" to set frontAppl to (name of (some process whose frontmost is true)) as text

And, perhaps there should be an 'activate' after tell application "TextEdit"
