Actually I would like to suggest an alternative to Record Macro script, it is AutoHotKey.
Hopefully Record Macro will be enhanced soon.

I suspect now you've brought it up, someone will volunteer some time and write an equivalent capability for window eyes (assuming there are situations where the keystroke recorder just can't be made to work).
