Description of the issue

We have a workfile where we want to choose a relation for our other relation database. We use the Open URL script step with a calculated url:
"FMP://fmserver.kunstbalie.nl/Relaties.fmp12?script=ZoekInstelling&param=" & Get ( ScriptParameter ) & "&$file=" & $file

Then we search in the relation database and click a button 'choose this relation' and this also uses the Open URL script step to fire a script in the database where we started from and set the id.

The things that go wrong now are:

An extra window opens for the database where we started from (this did not happen under 10.9)
The global variables $$ in the database where we started from are not present anymore! When we open manually a second window of the starting database the global variables ARE present !

It looks like this new window that opens is sandboxed or something like that.

I tried this again with the Second Golden Master of 10.10 and the problem still exist

Steps to reproduce the problem

2 databases
In first database set a few global variables $$var etc.
1 script with Open URL step that calls the second database
1 script with Open URL step that calls the first database (this opens a second window without the global variables)

Expected result

1 window of the first (starting) database with the global variables present

Actual result

2 window2 of the first (starting) database with NO global variables present

Exact text of any error message(s) that appear

no errors
