Attempting to do so results in the following: "Couldn't complete message to the application whose ID is " " because of the following error: "Mac OS Error: -600". I've tried a quick search of Userland lists and discussion, but don't have spare time to dig deeper. What's broken here?

Here's a link to the discussion of the issue. <http://frontier-osx.userland.com/discuss/msgReader$1026>

Both solutions are very "hackish" and just workarounds that do not solve the problem. The real issue is that suites.odbEditor.edit doesn't account for the fact that an app can be a package in Mac OS X, and doesn't properly determine the application id.
