Afaik, it's a face-less stack somewhere in RunRev memory. No special handlers (well maybe a few, but nothing we can touch anyway), no interface to setup certain variables, no one-click jump to the template fields... In fact, if you call up the 'mainStacks' in a stand-alone application, it doesn't show up. So it looks like an engine backward-compatibility residu, but only the MC/RR boys can solve that mistery.
