    Default Action to launch a script? (Possible?)

    I'm really having fun writing scripts for illustrator, and I have thought of several handy timesavers, but they loose their effectiveness when I have to navigate the file menu to activate them.

    Has anyone figured out how to create an action that can launch a script? The "select menu item" only works with stock menu items. :(

    If not, can someone post the link to Adobe's "wish-list" forum? I'd like to ask for it in Illy12...

    :)
