This is just a wild thought, but maybe it would work. We know that you can store anything in a custom property, including a stack. What if, when you open a stack, you have an invisible stack that copies that stack into a custom prop. Then, at certain intervals, or after certain events, that same invisible stack copies the currently open stack into another custom prop. At that point you could either compare their sizes using a length function, or even check the two custom props for equality.

Seems possible.
