GUI Scripting's a last resort where applications don't provide a
suitable scripting interface of their own. It's brittle and fiddly, and
finding your way around the structure of and application's is a chore.
Best (paid) solution would be to use UI Browser
(http://pfiddlesoft.com/uibrowser/) to generate AppleScript commands and
convert them to Python via ASTranslate. Or you could use appscript's
interactive help system to browse objects in SE; see the appscript
manual for more info.
