I have this working now by saving the stack in the temp directory and then
putting the stack's URL into the URL of the server-stored version.  Is this
the only way accomplish saving, or can saving be done in a variable?  Is
there a downside to saving files in the temp directory?

(I don't know if other folks have already done this but it's way cool to be
able to edit server stored stacks all within MC.)
