Images are *not* drawables. Images are drawable containers.
Only Layers, Channels (and Selections which are kind of special case of
channels) are drawables.
I have not yet checked the problem you mentioned in your other Mail,
it might very well be a bug. Have you tried clicking on the image
selector? Does the problem persist then?
However, you can easily avoid this problem by moving the menu
entry to <Image>/foo/bar/baz and registering your script with
a SF_IMAGE and a SF_DRAWABLE as the first two arguments. Then
you have easily access to the image the user invoked the script in
and the current active drawable of this image.
