I initially thought this issue was fixed in 10.10.2. However, in 10.10.3 I’m now seeing that while activate directed at another application works as expected, using “tell me” to activate the script app itself does not.

So with this run as an application…

tell application id "com.apple.TextEdit" -- TextEdit
	activate
	display dialog "TextEdit should be frontmost"
end tell
tell me to activate
display dialog "The script app should be frontmost”

…I correctly see the first dialog in TextEdit, but I get the bouncing dock icon for the second one.

The above works as expected in 10.9.5.
