If this happens, we should also consider tackling shell scripts at the same
time.

I, for one, am using a AppleScript files as simple wrappers for a lot of
shell scripts just so I can use them as QS objects/actions easily. I would
love to maintain them as *what they really are* (shell scripts) instead.

Part of the pain for that also involves $PATH, and figuring out how to move
around stdin/stdout/stderr.
