Just my two cents...
To prevent this, I always name my stacks with a prefix... So when the project
is called "mySampleApp", I name each substack with a prefix:
mySampleApp
msa_Main
msa_Preferences
msa_whatever
This way I'm always able to open other stacks and copy items and code from them
to another project.
I even created a small plugin to duplicate an existing project and rename it to
a new project, using the same naming convention.
If you can't solve the main problem, think about it and create your own
solution to solve it ;-)
