For photoshop, there's http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/xtools.html (scroll down to "ActionFileToJavascript") which can convert recorded photoshop actions into jsx. Is there any such resource for Illustrator?

as far as I know, no, there's no such thing for Illustrator.

Also, not everything you can do in an Action can be done with a script (a typical solution for that is to run a script that runs the action).

Do jsx script developers more commonly invoke saved actions from jsx (how?) or invoke applescript (which can invoke menus) from jsx?
