It's--obviously--always been stack-based, but the specifics of the
implementation has varied based on the application framework. One
trouble spot that I've noticed in the past occurs when the user finds a
way to bypass the screen-stack entirely. This was probably just due to
a inadequate implementation, however. If you like, I'd be happy to take
a look at your API--just fire it over to me directly whenever you feel
it's ready for show and tell. :)
