applescripts in toolbar bug?

On a related note. if I'm correct, OOPro 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 beta 2
identify toolbar scripts in entirely different folders:
3.0.3
~/LIbrary/Application Support/OmniOutliner 3/Scripts
3.0.4 beta 2
~/Library/Scripts/Applications/OmniOutliner Pro/
I noted that after upgrading an installation from 3.0.3 that had
existing toolbar buttons in the 3.0.3 toolbar directory (as above) to
3.0.4, the scripts in the toolbar still showed up (this is related to
my recent implementation of KGTD on kinkless.com). I'd be interested
in getting more insight into how OOPro really handles script
discovery, the different paths, etc. in clean installs vs upgrades,
and what the path will be in the final 3.0.4 release.
Best,
Ethan
