I understand and appreciate object/script binding in a message based environment.  But why cant the script editor list all of the scripts for easy access and comparison?

I wonder if it is really bad that the very powerful programming environments
let us do stuff we (or at least I) could never have imagined possible
before. I'm only saying this because in other forums sometimes people say
"oh scripting that's not programming".  My answer to them is usually "Why
aren't you writing machine code in hex -- that would be the most efficient"
