Don't hold your breath for a new API.
Apple does not want sandboxed apps to communicate with each other
except through extremely limited means: OS X Services (which is
limited to static Services only) and what appears to be a one-way
mechanism defined under Mtn Lion (not sure what part of it is un
I've also filed a bug at least 3 months ago, and it appears Apple have been
ignoring it. I have come to the same conclusion as you on the matter Nick.
It seems we must either wait for a new API (which I think is unlikely to
happen) or have to remove features that rely on this from our applications

Hi all,
I've upgraded to Lion, and my app which sends simulated keyboard presses to
various apps to activate a service cannot send these keyboard presses to
Safari or TextEdit. The keyboard presses are still sent correctly to Xcode,
