> Nothing visionary about sandboxing today... i think it's already been around a while.

My "realistically visionary" question was more directed at Apple's push for universal implementation of sandboxing in 3rd party apps than as a general question.

(Since I posted, I've searched a bit and found "Sandbox" folders in both /Library and /System/Library, the former empty...the latter populated, so it obviously has been around for a while.)

And as for your fears about TextWrangler, I'll echo them as respects Butler, v 5.0 of which has been is on indefinite hold because of sandboxing.
