I was (happily) surprised today when  in a handler in a library that was put 
into use on init of the app

that a handler in

lib_initMyApp.livecodescript  # now in the msg hierarchy

on bakeBread pDaKin
   put the name of this stack
end bakeBread

Then in a top level binary stack nameā€¦ e.g.

baking.livecode

if we call  "bakeBread"

we see

stack "baking.livecode"

in the msg box and not

lib_initMyApp.livecodescript

ergo "this stack" in a script only text stack in the message path is not seen 
as "itself"
but actually the target script from whence the command was issued.

So this means we don't have to parse for "the target"  yay!

Am I right? Is this dependable moving forward? Any caveats?
