One of the things I've been meaning to do is file an enhancement
request regarding some of the available features for seatbelt but I
think it would be useful to discuss some of the more complicated
scenarios with a fairly wide developer audience.
The main area I'm interested in is dealing with user intent - e.g.
it would be really nice if there was a simple way for an application
to say that it will only use the standard paths (e.g.
~/Library/{Application Support,Preferences,Cache}/com.example.app.*)
and anything which the user has selected in a standard open/save
dialog, drag-and-drop, etc. which appears to be currently impossible
short of creating a separate process and using IPC.
Indeed. Currently there are architectural restrictions that make
this sort of thing tricky. That's one of the reasons that Seatbelt
is not yet considered a public API.
Please /do/ file your enhancements requests; I don't think the
Seatbelt folks are on this list, but I can guarantee that they will
see any formal enhancement requests that you file.
