Some of this is available by way of the new server side Lingo functionality
in SMUS 3.  Not to mention multi-threaded Lingo, binary file access and
more... ;-)

However, other than announcing your handlers (such as stuffing their name
into a global as they start to execute) there's really no way I know of to
determine which handler is currently executing.  It would be pretty darn
useful as you could start to write a Lingo profiler... (!)
