Is it possible to script (e.g. with AppleScript or bash shell script) applying the Simple Finder and an associated application whitelist to a local user account on Mac OS X? We are using Mac OS X 10.8.5 and have a need to be able to do this on multiple Macs. As it is not a network account we cannot use Workgroup Manager for this purpose.

You can do this with Profiles.

You can make a profile through Server.app's web interface. You can download Apple's Server.app from the App Store.

Then you can script the install: sudo profiles -I -F /path/to/profile.mobileconfig

Example Finder Payload:
