That word was a couple days before 10.7.3 was released, so I understood it as being "10.7.3 isn't out yet, so this is premature."
Turns out, with an extra mach service entitlement (com.apple.security.temporary-exception.mach-lookup.global-name / com.apple.scopedbookmarksagent.xpc) you can get it work, but given that, the lack of errors otherwise, and the fact that some of the API seems to be incorrect, it seems to me the API really isn't finished. I don't see how this March sandboxing deadline can be met.
