Changing away from previous would be great! Parent isn't quite right anyway because there's no necessary relationship between plans on the stack. You could stop at a breakpoint while using one plan, and then do a "step" and the plan that was working before the breakpoint has no knowledge or relationship to the new plan. I've been trying recently to be consistent about using Older and Younger for things pushed onto a stack. That seems clear to me since you are describing the process of pushing things onto a stack, so the order in the stack is governed by the time at which they were pushed. I've been trying to speak of stack frames this way as well.
