I say I agree. Using Toolbox calls directly in MacPerl is cumbersome to
write, and the result is rather slow too. It's just not practical.

What I would love, is something similar to Dialog Director for
Applescript. Have you seen it? It's magic. And it's free. 

Basically, it's a library, written in a compiled language, that takes
care of the nitty-gritty for you, and which provides hooks to attach
your code to (for example, a button press event).
