I realize this is a bit tangential to your main point, but I'm not sure what you're missing with backgrounds. I still occasionally port old HC stacks and their backgrounds work fine, including their original HC scripts. LiveCode uses the same syntax, which MetaCard introduced in order to be compatible with HC stacks.

To reproduce HC backgrounds, just make a group, set its backgroundBehavior to true, and it's layer to 1. That's it. It will work like HC did. Limit yourself to a single background on a card and you have the old paradigm.
