I have an app here that uses that technique for documents, and we just close
the stack, which effectively deletes it if it hasn't been saved to disk.
That's the cool thing about this method: It follows GUI guidelines very
well, allowing you to create new documents with the option to save them or
not as with any other program. SuperCard and HyperCard require that you
name the file first, which prevents this normal document handling method.
