[TxMt] open terminal and environment

So I happened to notice that when I use the Shell Script bundles "Open Terminal" that my project environment variables don't appear.

According to this tech note:

http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html

osascript (which is what the "Open Terminal" command uses to tell Terminal.app to open a window) passes its environment along, which contains the project variables.

Is this a limitation of using "do script" instead of "do shell script"?

The only work around I can think of is to explicitly set the environment variables inside the "do script" (possibly exporting all the variables to a temporary file and then sourcing that file inside the "do script"). That seems icky for a variety of reasons.

Thoughts?
