Hi

I've just been experimenting by storing a stack into a custom 
property of another stack,

<set the cpSomeStack of group "someGroup" to url binfile:whatever>

and then doing something like:

<go stack the cpSomeStack of group "someGroup" as palette>

It worked, and I got that great feeling when you discover a new piece 
of magic. (New to me that is.) But my main question is whether there 
are any pitfalls in this technique that I haven't considered.

My reason for doing this rather than using a substack was for 
developing easily transportable and self contained "widgets" as 
Metacard groups. Just copy and paste these widgets from one stack to 
another, and if they need their own palettes, warning dialogs, or 
whatever, they can be transported with them.

Any thought or comments are welcome.

Cheers
Dave Cragg
