Summary: Information leaks: [info script] and [info nameofexecutable]

Initial Comment:
both returns the real path
[info nameofexecutable] shoud return "" imho (hide info?)
[info script] shoud return the hidden path to this file. (Idea from kbk: read the file, invoke [info script $hiddenPath] and eval the contents.)

Ok, one more:
[file join [file dirname ~user] [file tail ~user]] returns users home directory
