Can't find it anywhere - I'm looking to use a permanent id that will survive
stack modifications and (file) name changes.
You could always insert the stack id of the original stack (pre mods)
into a custom prop and then check that from that point on... I don't
know about permanent stack IDs, though - I remember we *talked* about
it, but I don't know if it actually got implemented.
I can't imagine it did. IDs in Rev are integers -- what would happen if
I made a stack with an IDE and you made a stack which had the same ID
and I gave you my stack to run?
Rev might be able to adopt some sort of GUID function, but there's a far
simpler solution in hand right now:
Stack titles can differ from the stack name, so regardless of whatever I
might display for the user, I tend to use the stack name as its ID.
Since it need not be visible, it need never change.
