I thought after I sent the email, is there a runtime engine for rev that would allow stacks to run as documents?

WHOA THERE TONTO! I thought the whole idea to properties was persistence?? That means that I cannot save, for instance, the database settings a user entered? I have to create an external file for all of that? And so many card and object properties in my app DEPEND on persistence through runtime. This means that I have to put a kabosh on the whole project!

You're no worse off than any other application developer: Windows and Linux have never allowed applications to modify themselves at runtime, and even Mac OS only allowed this back when it still put executable code in the resource fork (though under OS X any app can store files in the bundle).
