The developer documentation says your app has to be sandboxed and there are such and so entitlements that will allow it to do certain things. But if those entitlements don't meet your needs, there are these special entitlements you can use (like com.apple.security.temporary-exception.apple-events, to send an Applescript to another application). Just add them to your app, and be sure to provide a detailed explanation of why you need to use them in your iTunes app submission.

The catch is that the lovely folks at the MAS will not actually approve any app that uses these special entitlements. And helpfully, as part of their condescending lecture to you, they will refer you to documentation that makes it sound like you can use special entitlements if you have a good reason.


Best,
