Summary: PythonLauncher uses incorrect working directory

Initial Comment:
PythonLauncher, the application used to launch .py files by double-click, 
does not launch with the correct working directory. This means that any 
script that depends on data files will not work via PythonLauncher.

Users expect the working directory to be that of the launched script, like 
on other platforms, but PythonLauncher launches with a working directory 
of $HOME.
