I would prefer to make it clear that this is script is to be used in  
place of a direct engine, with some checkbox somewhere. In fact, this  
should be an alternative to latexmk. i.e. I am thinking of it as  
having a checkbox that makes it clear to the user that they have  
enabled a custom script or latexmk.pl, instead of the direct choices  
on the top.

Also, I think that there is some %!TEX directive that users can use  
to force the use of a particular "TeXShop engine" (i.e. what we cann  
a custom script), which would be nice if we can respect in some way.

Oh it can? How? If that's the case, then of course it should be kept  
separate.
