Yes - the point is that the following give a result that is not only
unexpected but plain wrong (go on - try it and see):

In my MVC libraries handlers frequently pass around the objects they acts
on. So early on I put object references into a variable:

put the long id of the target into targetObject

and then pass the variable "targetObject" around. As such a handler that get
passed a reference to a stack in a variable should be confident that it does
what is expected. In my case it did not and added an object to the main
stack and not the substack because of the above bug.

As a passionate advocate for the language and its robustness - maybe a few a
votes here <http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=8277> would
get this annoyance fixed :)

Pretty sure it will be in all versions.
