Applescript and Keynote 6 / 5.3

I posted here about how Applescript has been eviscerated in Keynote 6

Installing KN 6 also created a problem where existing Applescripts that call Keynote will call the new version, which can't respond to them.

I found a work-around (just beginning to test but good so far):

1) rename the old version of Keynote (in the iWork '09 folder) to Keynote 5.3

2) change the tell commands in scripts from

tell application "Keynote"

to

tell application "Keynote 5.3"

This doesn't fix Keynote 6's Applescript problems, but at least it allows me to keep using Applescripts with Keynote 5.3 .

I was opening this would also let me set all keynote documents to open with Keynote 5.3, but no luck there.
