Right.

It sounds obvious when you say it.  But in the absence of that, there's no
reason to think that 'the result' of the popup command won't be something
useful; or to know which message will be relevant.

You might also discuss what happens to statements following the popup
command in the original handler.

thanks for list-ening,
