There almost certainly is. As you say, 'path of front document' (or 
variants thereof) generates an error.

What's interesting is that if you do:

	tell application "OmniOutliner"
	   properties of (front document as item)
	end

the result returned from AppleScript is an associative array that 
includes an entry for 'path' which is displayed - by Script Editor - 
with the correct value. However, it's not possible to get the values 
for any of the individual entries in the array without triggering an 
error.
