Interesting...so there are two ways. It looks like revIDEStackIsIDEStack
needs a long id, and revStackNameIsIDEStack needs only the short name
but will also accept a long ID.
Thanks for finding the list of qualifications.

It used to be we could identify IDE stacks because their names started
with "rev" but that's not true anymore. I want to scan for and list
any open non-IDE stacks. Does anyone know offhand if there's an
existing function in the IDE that identifies IDE stacks? Or maybe
there's a property to check for?
If you're just looking at the open stacks, you can iterate through them
using
revStackNameIsIDEStack(tStackName)
which will return true if it's a system stack.
According to the comments for revIDEStackNameIsIDEStack which call it,
A stack is considered part of the IDE if any of the following are
satisfied:
* Its name begins with "rev"
* It was loaded by the initialisation library
* Its name begins with "com.livecode."
* Its name is "message box, answer dialog, ask dialog, or home"
* Its _ideoverride property is true
