One alternative is a sequence of lines. This limits the data. You
can't queue multiline text without some modification. Also, numbers go
through numberFormat and some info may be lost. You can't queue arrays
this way.
Arrays handle multiline data and numbers, but (currently) not arrays.
(BTW, there is good news for boxes. An upcoming version of Revolution
with have some optimization for replacing substrings with 'put'.)
