If there are APIs that are easier to use with a const OSType creatorCode that don't have a similarly easy const CFStringRef bundleIdentifier equivalent, then file a bug.

Against quite a lot of the AppleEvent Manager + especially saved AppleScripts?


Basically saved scripts rely on FOURCC constants for nearly everything, including quite some preference for Type and Creator, to match the target they send events to - up to an level where you need to use indirect scripting and provide a PSN as parameter to the script in order to target the correct version of two different applications with the same Creator running on a machine (Quark XPress 5.0 [no bundleid] / Classic and Quark XPress 6.5 / Carbon).

And the real OT wrt Creator:
On a Intel machine you need two script applications again (PPC/ Rosetta and Intel) for XPress 6/7 because the default endian swappers refuse to reorder an custom Quark datatype (AppleScript equivalent of typedef long Fixed) when the Script is not executed in the same RTA as the target.
