I fired up ORCA/M and whipped up a little assembly program that takes you back
to the finder when you run it from BASIC. You could turn it into a SYS program
and run it to go back. It's the same code I added to my homemade version of 
ECP8 I wrote eons ago:

         keep  t
try      start
         jsr   $bf00
         dc    h'65',a'qparm'
qparm    dc    h'04ee',a'addr',h'000000'
addr     ds    2
         end

This does an extended quit call with a null pathname, causing ProDOS 8 to quit
back to the previous app, which is the finder in my case.
