I might not have been clear. You'd keep the login stack a toplevel stack
all the time. In whatever handler actually launches that stack, you'd
check the environment and only open it as modal if the environment is
"standalone".
During development the login stack is toplevel. It should be able to
retrieve db info normally in that mode. The reason you want a modal is
so that users can't click away until the data loads, but as the
developer you'd know not to do that. You'd just wait for the data and
then proceed normally.
Seems like the simplest solution to me. A toplevel stack won't hinder
development or standalone builds, and it will show up as modal if the
environment is "standalone" (or if it's not "development", or whatever
other test you want to apply.)

I assume because it's opened modally, and the builder obviously needs to open
another stack but can't because the modal stack is blocking the progress of the
script that told my app to open it. (I know it's confisung but that is how
modality works I guess).

Regardless of the stack mode, why wouldn't it retrieve info? As the developer
you'd know not to click elsewhere until the data is there, right?
