What you've suggested does get rid of the "locked" script problem. I looked in the old MoI API reference HTML page and "Waitable Objects" were probably my problem, if I'm not mistaken.

However, getSelectedObjects() does not seem to include the edit points of objects. Before, I could tweak the curve point of a line with the nudge script. This is pretty critical for my workflow.

Is there a way to get objects and potential editable points? ...or maybe there is a clever way to cancel the "waitable" thing before running "return;" and keep the current object selection code? ...can I issue an "Esc key press" or the code behind it before running "return;"? ...what are your thoughts?
