1) making MacRuby an OSA component, so that it's recognized by the

implement this. If you're willing to check it out, the documentation
is there:

I unfortunately think that nobody made an open-source OSA component
yet. In fact, AFAIK the only other OSA component is a JavaScript
implementation which is not maintained anymore (and closed-source).
Hmm, have you looked at:
OSA Components Release Notes
http://www.vcn.bc.ca/~philip/osa/
The OSA components included in this release enable scripting languages
like Perl, Python, Ruby, sh, and Tcl to work in the OSA environment at
peer level with AppleScript.
TclOSAScript - Exec for MacTcl
http://www.sagecertification.org/publications/library/proceedings/tcl97/full_papers/ingham/ingham_html/ingham.html
TclOSAScript provides the ability for MacTcl scripts to run scripts in
any other OSA compatible language on the Macintosh. Since the OSA is
the standard mechanism for interapplication communication on the Mac,
this allows MacTcl to run other applications, and provides an exec
like facility (though arguably using a much richer communication model.)
Frontier/ UserLand (Mac OS 9?)
http://docserver.userland.com/osa/

Not sure if any of these is what you were looking for, but figured I
may as well pass them along, if only for background.
