Come on, fellows, there's no operating system in the world below Orange Book class B2 that makes it the slightest bit difficult to "delete or damage a user's files with no warning" once a native script or executable is launched. And nobody sane would want to use a compartmentalised mode OS on a personal computer.
And why would you expect Applescript to offer "protection against malicious commands"? It's not a web scripting language like Javascript or Jscript, it's not intended nor used for an application where it might be running untrusted code.
