Is there an API to determine a list of installed scriptable applications?
Such a list is displayed by the AppleScript Editor menu item Open Dictionary...
Application bundles can be queried for using MDQuery and the scriptability of a given application can be be determined.
I don't think that ASE uses this approach as its existence long predates Spotlight etc.
Also the ASE list includes items that have not been previously launched.
