Not good for me. People are always trying to push my buttons, and giving them an easy way to find them would not be something I could vote for. ;-)
But this was something I mentioned a while back as a means to easily compress a stack into it's definitions. Things like scripts and properties would have to be done separately, but wouldn't it be nice if you could just get the stackObjects and get a list of everything in a stack, along with it's ID's, location and position in the hierarchy? Also, out of curiosity, (I may have asked before) what happened to an object that is cut from a card then pasted on the same card? Does it get a new ID? Probably so. Just curious.
