I'll answer about the comments separately,when I've had more time to think about it.
But - this one is quick ...

But tokenizing seems unrelated to the challenge of getting a handler from a
script, because it can lose the control structure of a handler.  For
example, consider the following handlers, whose bodies yield the same list
of tokens:

on a
 if the seconds mod 2 = 0 then ask the date;ask the time
end a

on b
 if the seconds mod 2 = 0 then ask the date
 ask the time
end b

Those two bodies have the *same* meaning.

I suspect you have a different idea for what handler 'a' will do - in fact, it *always" ask the time.

To see this more clearly, try

on mouseUp
  if true then put "this" after msg; put "that" &cr after msg
  if false then put "this" after msg; put "that" &cr after msg
end mouseUp
