Equivalent of HC cantPeek?

Working on my Transcript eBook today I ran into the first thing I've  
found that HyperTalk has that Transcript appears to lack: the cantPeek  
property for a stack. This property traps the Option-Command key combo  
and ensures the user can't do anything by pressing those keys.

I know we don't need this property because this is the default behavior  
of a Rev stack, but won't its absence potentially break imported HC  
stacks that use it?
