If you want to be able to type scripts in and have them executed you could create a custom property to hold the applescript to run.

Create a custom prop called uAppleScript in the stack.  Paste the following into it:

display dialog "hi"

Create a button with the following script:

on mouseUp
    do the uAppleScript of this stack as applescript
end mouseUp

You should see a dialog box with 'Hi' displayed in it.
