Is 'the effective filename of this stack' of any use?
or the long id of this stack ?

Got a slightly convoluted situation where I need to get hold of the

When the app starts up, I issue a "start using" command to bring in my
library handlers. I have a libraryStack handler which needs to get
hold of
the value of a custom property in the main stack of the handler that
issued
the "start using" command.
I tried using "me" and "the target" but they return the main stack
of the
library stack, not the calling stack. Right now, I'm getting around
this by
getting hold of the mainstacks property, filtering out the rev
stacks and my
library stack and hope that the result leaves one stack - the
calling stack.
However, if there happens to be more than one application's stack in
memory
in the IDE, I end up with two or more stack names.
Is there some way to discover the correct main stack in this
situation?
