Nice. And along with that we should probably have the Menu Builder 
automatically create File and Edit menus complete with the script commands that 
make them work. For instance Save will save the current stack, Copy will copy 
whatever is currently selected, etc. We can code it now, but with many 
different stacks/forms that do different things, having to code each menu, or 
create a global menuPick handler for *some* menu commands as I now do seems 
sketchy.

When Theming becomes available we'll be able to revamp the ways menus are 
constructed, mapping those calls to native OS routines for even closer 
adherence to user expectations.   And along with that I'll probably need to 
come up with another way to know if a menu is open since I won't be able to 
rely on the first line of "the windows" being blank - small price to pay if we 
finally get automatically-toggling Alt key shortcuts for Windows.
