.launchAppWithBundleIdentifier(bundle_id, opts) ⇒ Object

TODO:

One thing we want to look into is using Launch Services instead of NSWorkspace for app launching. The reason is that we will avoid the problem launching new apps that have not been registered yet. But the big thing is that we can get the PSN for the application, which will allow for more directed input using CGEvents and it also gives us a data structure to wait on that indicates when the app has properly started up.

The additonalEventParamDescriptor option is not supported by the bridge rigt now
