Thanks for the link. Interesting read.

In short, that's really a bummer. It totally negates a chunk of functionality 
from my framework. I'll have to resort to something like keeping a client app 
running on the server that communicates with the webapp/shell via webservice (a 
security risk in itself). Also, it removes a lot of functionality from the API. 
There are a myriad of useful shell/server tools that could be created with that 
Cocoa functionality. 

Has anyone heard of Apple coming up with a solution to this conundrum? Or is it 
Bug Report time? There has to be some way to do it securely. 

thanks again Ken,
